After three weeks of consideration, Clear Channel Communications, the nation's biggest radio station operator, has accepted a $18.7 billion buyout offer from Thomas H. Lee Partners LLC and Bain Capital Partners LLC. In addition to paying $37.60 in cash for each Clear Channel share, the buyers will assume an additional $8 billion in debt.
