I need info on newsfeeds

V

vipspeaker

Hi!

I'm looking at putting a dark station back on the air. The station has NO satellite news, so where do I begin to contact National and STATE news agencies to provide a dish and a feed for me?

Thanks a lot!

Preface this post with two things:
1) I have absolutely no idea about fees/contracts/etc for any of the networks listed. This listing is just from a Google search and my prior knowledge.
2) Keep in mind that you may be "blocked out" of any or all of these networks due to market exclusivity from nearby (or far away!) stations.

Georgia News Network is run out of GST in Atlanta. There is a 1-800 number, but I think it is affiliate-exclusive. Instead, I'll point you to 404-367-0640. Ask to speak to Rob Maynard, or whoever handles new affiliate requests for GNN.

Many national networks are run out of Westwood One...
CBS, CNN, and NBC News: http://www.westwoodone.com/pg/jsp/affiliateservices/affilrep.jsp

Aside from that...
ABC News: 1-888-795-4ABC
AP Network: 1-800-821-4747
Fox Radio: 212-301-5439
USA Radio: 1-800-829-8111
 
WOW! Thank you!
