Here is a blurb from wikipedia:

Donation of station to the MMTC and pending closure

On December 11, 2012, Clear Channel announced they were donating the station to the Minority Media and Telecommunications Council (MMTC), as part of the Ownership Diversity Initiative between Clear Channel and the MMTC. The MMTC's plans for the station have yet to be announced.[1] However, on December 14, 2012, it was revealed that the MMTC donation applies only to the license of the station, as Clear Channel announced that WDTW will cease broadcasting at 12 Midnight on December 31, 2012, with the station's antennas and transmitter facilities near the intersection of I-94 and Telegraph Road in Taylor dismantled shortly afterward.[2]
