Benztown To Offer Customized News to Radio

Benztown Radio Networks announces that it will offer high quality, localized news content from Remote News Service (RNS) to radio stations across the U.S. on a barter and cash basis.

RNS is a fully customized and cost-effective news solution that delivers hyper-local, market specific professional newscasts that give listeners a feeling of community through a local voice and format-complementary sound. With a staff of experienced major market-trained broadcast journalists, RNS offers stations full-time, part-time and fill-in news. RNS also provides a combination of Local, Regional, National and International news so stations can save money on network news feeds.

Dave Denes

Dave “Chachi” Denes, President of Benztown Radio Networks said: “The demand for high quality, customized local news content has never been greater. In this 24/7/365 news environment, stations can depend on the professional news team at RNS, who collectively bring more than 50 years experience providing outstanding and award-winning news coverage to stations and networks of all market sizes and formats. If stations need a quick one-minute newscast or five minutes with sports, weather and traffic, RNS takes the worry and the cost from the equation.”

Lesley Lotto

Lesley Lotto, President of Remote News Service said: “We’re very excited to work with Benztown to extend our services to stations on a barter basis. When news breaks, we’re on it. There’s no need to worry or spend extra time tracking down staff members to get the story. We’re the dependable choice for customized, accurate news, tailored specifically for the unique needs of each of our station partners and their communities. Whether stations need an authoritative News/Talk sound or a young, hipper feel for an Alternative Rock station, RNS has it covered at a cost that is easy on today’s lean operating budgets.”

RNS serves stations of all formats and market sizes, and recently entered into an agreement with iHeart Media to provide customized news reports through its Alabama Radio Network and Alabama flagship station, WERC.
