As the Radio News Network war starts to heat up Westwood One has announced it has signed CBS Radio in New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C to carry its new product powered by CNN. The stations are 1010 WINS in New York, WBZ-AM in Boston, KYW-AM in Philadelphia, and WNEW-FM in Washington, D.C.
CBS Radio New York Market Manager and CBS Radio Executive Vice President of Operations Scott Herman said “We are very excited to be part of the launch of Westwood One News. The ability to get in on the ground floor and help establish what our all news stations needs are was very enticing for us. Our stations have a huge appetite for news material and Westwood One News gives us the flexibility to get what we need when we want it.”
Westwood One’s SVP, Affiliate Sales Dennis Green said, “Westwood One is proud to have major market CBS Radio stations join our Westwood One News Network from the outset. These stations are among the most innovative and trusted brands in radio news. To have major news brands become early adopters of this service speaks volumes to broadcasters looking for superb content by which to build their local news brands.”
