“The Fanatic has been several years in the making. We are excited to bring an outstanding lineup of sports programming to Arizona radio listeners,” said CRC President Ron Cohen. “Business and sports tend to interest a similar audience,” Cohen said. “Having both radio formats provides advertisers with a unique and cost efficient method of reaching males 35-plus.”
