In a move that enhances its position as the No. 1 sports talk station in Baltimore, Sports Radio 105.7 The Fan (WJZ-FM/Baltimore) today announced it reached agreement with Westwood One to broadcast the NFL primetime package.
Beginning in August, 2009, with a full complement of pre-season games and continuing through the Super Bowl, Sports Radio 105.7 The Fan will feature weekly NFL action on Thursday’s and Sunday’s, as well as Monday Night Football broadcasts.
“The NFL, along with the Orioles, the Terps and our Gameday Ravens coverage have made 105.7 The Fan the leading sports radio station in one of America’s most passionate sports towns,” said Robert Philips, Senior Vice President of CBS RADIO Baltimore. “Our plan was always to make 105.7 The Fan the consummate sports radio station in Baltimore, and I believe that with the addition of the NFL, we have more than achieved our goal.”
Sports Radio 105.7 THE FAN is owned and operated by CBS RADIO, one of the largest major-market radio operators in the United States. A division of CBS Corporation, CBS RADIO operates 134 radio stations, the majority of which are in the nation’s top 50 markets. CBS RADIO also owns and operates WLIF, WWMX and WJZ-AM in Baltimore.
