CBS News Radio "Dissolved"
- Thread starter NewsStud
- Start date
You forgot 94.1 KMXB-HD3 / 101.5 K268CS “K-DAWN” Las Vegas NV. They’re affiliated with FOX News Radio.
I can confirm that.
This does surprise me, because The Detroit News reported on Thursday that ABC News Radio content would be heard on WWJ according to "a source."
I cannot help but wonder if 910 WFDF's existing affiliation with ABC threw a monkey wrench into the TOH newscast plans?
I guess we'll see if anything changes in the coming week.

WWJ was still airing the CBS TOH updates last evening.
Here's an example of how WWJ backfilled the CBS void at the TOH this morning:

KIRO-FM Seattle switched to ABC News yesterday.
Note that KNWN Northwest Newsradio is the long time affiliate of ABC's Information Service.
When ABC shuttered the E-Net a few years ago, they changed the sounder of the :30 one minute status report, and the lockout became "This is ABC News".
KIRO is running a verison of that - same sounder, same lockout, same anchor, but with an additional minute after the lockout.
Is this a 2 minute newscast being fed from :30-:32, and KIRO is running it on delay?

Here are more Tribute airchecks on the former CBS News Radio.
In my neck of the woods (Central Kentucky) we had ONE CBS Radio News affiliate: WMST (1150) Mt. Sterling. They switched to NBC news a couple of weeks ago, which makes sense as their other stations are NBC affiliates.
There are/were no current CBS radio affiliates in Lexington, Louisville or Cincinnati.
WKJK Louisville did carry CBS news until a couple of years ago when they switched to FOX.
WAY back in 1984 longtime CBS affiliate, WHAS switched to ABC, citing CBS not being happy with them running their own WHAS local TOH (WHAS had an excellent news department back then) newscasts during morning and afternoon drive. WHAS has been with ABC since then except for a couple of years in the early 2000s where they ran FOX news

Here is the time when KNX Los Angeles provided the nation via CBS News radio of the 1992 fallout of the Rodney King verdicts in Los Angeles.
Keep in mind that "NBC" is really iHeart, which is licensing the brand from NBC.
KTRH Houston left CBS in 1987, claiming that ABC's approach to news coverage was more aggressive and in line with the image KTRH wished to project. There's a little nugget of truth in there: sometimes these network selections were more about image than about content. CBS's image started falling out of fashion with radio stations, it appeared. That said more about what radio news was turning into than about CBS, I think.
Good night and good luck and goodbye -- CBS News Radio signs off after nearly 100 years
NEW YORK — As a radio professional who grew up aspiring to work at CBS News Radio, anchor Steve Kathan understood the weight of the words he wrote and recorded Friday on the final broadcast of "World News Roundup."

Here is an LA time retrospective and obituary for CBS News Radio.
What happens to LA's KNX and other stations when CBS News Radio goes away?
LOS ANGELES — The announcement of the end of CBS News Radio last Friday was met with elegiac tributes to the service that built the foundation of William Paley's company nearly 100 years ago and brought the heroic work of journalists such as Edward R. Murrow to millions...

KNX is navigating this in a way similiar to other displaced CBS Radio affiliates.
Who is RNN?
Radio News Network
I hope there is a podcast version of it soon.
What purpose is there in having a podcast of the network news every :00 and :30 when there is an update available almost instantly? Any station that becomes an affiliate may record so as to play each newscast at the time in the next few minutes at a precise moment when another show... or a song... ends.
KYW in Philly is no longer running the TOH and BOH national news updates they formerly ran late evenings and overnights. Instead, it’s an extra few minutes of locally anchored news. Although now using ABC I think I’m hearing less national news reports and more local anchors reading national news stories.
They are still running Eye on Travel features with Peter Greenberg. I thought those were distributed by CBS.

RNN is using the same TOH jingle sweeper as USA Radio News.
USA Radio News is still around. It’s now owned and distributed by Talk Media Network.
Peter Greenberg does a podcast. and CBS podcasts are distributed by Audacy.
CBS And Audacy Podcasts Expand Sales Deal.
Eight years after Audacy bought CBS Radio, there continues to be close ties between the companies. CBS has inked a multi-year sales and distribution partnership that will mean Audacy Podcasts
Here's a commentary about Audacy stations flipping to ABC News before the CBS signoff.
barrettmedia.com
What the commentor ignores is that Audacy was the final distributor of CBS News Radio. They had a contract with CBS, and CBS pulled the plug. Audacy had skin in this game. Audacy's KCBS was still airing World News Roundup when CBS had a technical problem and the show didn't air. Whoops! So perhaps some staffers left CBS News before the final day.
CBS News Radio Deserved Better From Longtime Audacy Affiliates
The transition to ABC News essentially pulled the plug before the patient was gone.
