Boston radio station WTKK 96.9 FM said Tuesday it has
expanded its news offerings to include live newscasts every 30 minutes, and
traffic and weather reports every 15 minutes, 24 hours a day. The news and
weather reports will be available on the radio station, online , and via apps
on Apple and Android mobile devices, according to a story by D. C. Denison at boston.com
The station, which has a talk radio format, is now branding
itself as “News Talk 96.9.”
The expanded news programming is based on a partnership with
Total Traffic Network, a national news service that is owned by radio giant
Clear Channel Communications, Inc., located in San Antonio, Texas. The news
staff will be locally-based, said WTKK program director, Grace Blazer.
“We’ve always had news,” Blazer said, “but now it will be
more frequent and more local.”
