Louisville Is Louisville radio unreliable on weekends?

[Great]

In Louisville, CBS, ABC, and NBC have been wall to wall with the Biden announcement. I had to run to the store and thought WHAS radio 840 would keep me informed. Nope.

Lots of stations run syndicated shows on the weekends.

The story itself was broken on social media. Once you got past the announcement, there's nothing else to report.

On Sundays, WHAS Radio is most likely running out of a computer. There is no staff, nor anyone minding the store.

Perhaps the best place for breaking news on the weekends is WFPL.

Sounds about right. WLW was talking about it, but we know WHAS isn't in the same stratosphere as they are. I'm just shocked WHAS didn't at least pot up ABC radio or something.

Very good point. I'm also surprised WFPL isn't breaking ratings records like some of the other NPR stations are doing.

Look at the Sunday schedule, all paid programming or syndicated shows that run from a computer. There was probably no one there to put anything else on the air, because the shows can run without someone physically there.

WHAS-AM was in wall-to-wall news coverage on Sunday from about 2:25PM until 7PM then took "the Ben Ferguson show" and "Sunday Nights with Bill Cunningham" both are LIVE news focus programs from 7PM-1AM.

I heard The Great Outdoors with Jim Strader interviewing John Boel in the 6p or 7p hour, but if they were in wall-to-wall coverage during the day then I salute them and take back what I said.
