fox sports --- NYC & Phillly ?
- Thread starter BigJimmy
- Start date
they just Flipped 1480 to smooth jazz
I doubt they would flip an fm to sports talk fox sports radio is mostly on in small to medium markets
Clear Channel could flip one of it's New York FM's to sports (or even WOR-710, with WOR's call letters and current talk format moving to one of the company's FM stations) with, but not completely, 24/7 Fox Sports Radio.
At the moment, the New York Mets are looking for a radio flagship for 2014. And while the Islanders hockey team has a small network on Long Island this year, I would think the Isles would like a "big signal" New York station for their flagship once they begin play at Barclays Center in Brooklyn next Fall.
I expect CC will be the prime contender for radio rights to both teams, which would provide local pro sports play-by-play twelve-months-a-year for such an all-sports station.
If CC lands the Mets, expect Fox Sports 710 or Fox Sports 104.3 (with a couple of local New York-centric shows along with most of the FSR lineup) to launch in-time for the beginning of pre-season baseball next March.

This is the same problem they just had with Rush. They want to get their syndication on in big cities, but they don't own a lot of AMs. They could run Fox Sports in overnights on WOR. But that's their best option.
That's funny...because they want an audience.
