IHeartMedia/Los Angeles has announced its News/Talk KFI 640 AM is now equipping its field reporters with news drones fitted with on-board HD cameras.
KFI is the first Southern California radio news outlet to use the drone technology. KFI plans to utilize the unique footage on its website and social media. Reporters are required to complete both classroom and field training with an instructor and KFI News Drones will now be a part of their general news gathering equipment.
"There is no doubt in my mind that this is the future of news gathering," said PD Robin Bertolucci. "The news drones will be a great addition to our content capturing technology. Our listeners demand dynamic content on our website and social media. Not to mention, they're just really, really cool."
