On June 14, 2017, Univision announced that it would sell KKSS (as well as sister stations KIOT and KKRG-FM) to American General Media, which had attempted repeatedly to challenge KKSS over the years. AGM would pay $5 million for the Univision cluster that its predecessor paid $22.5 million for in 2002 (which also included 101.7), showing a significant drop in value over 15 years. The sale was approved by the FCC on August 23, 2017, and was consummated on September 1, 2017.
