Network News Affiliations in Tampa-St. Pete?

[Wimmmex]

I don't know how much network news is cleared in TSP....but does anyone know the network affiliations in the market?


(MOD: I am not sure why this was moved to the "TV Board"....the question is about Tampa St. Pete RADIO News Network Affiliations, not TV!)

WFLA 970 carries Fox News, since Fox is distributed by iHeart, WFLA's parent company.

WGUL 860 carries Townhall, since that's owned by Salem, WGUL's parent company.

WTBN 570 runs SRN News sometimes, same as above.

At one time, WWBA 820 carried CBS. Not sure if that's still true.

At one time, WHBO 1040 and WHNZ 1250 also carried Fox News. Not sure if that's still true.

At one time, WENG 1570 Englewood carried ABC. Not sure if that's still true.

And I'm not sure if 1340 WTAN has a news network.

I moved it because I thought (as did another poster) that you were asking about WTSP. Your "TSP" shortcut, rather than Tampa-St. Pete or Tampa Bay, has caused some confusion.

Just did an OTA radio network news check, only confirmed two stations; WHBO 1040 carried ABC news at the top of the hour and WHNZ 1250 carried CBS news at the top of the hour (which is what they were carrying earlier this year before the pandemic hit).....earlier this year though I noticed that the CBS news at the top of the hour was carried only during the day; in the evening, it was strictly their lineup of informercials/talk shows.

I'm kind of out of the market over here, but we've pulled the news almost entirely from 1330,1360, and 1170, and the little bit of news that is run over the network is 60 seconds of CBS three times a day and twice a day on 1330 as I do not run news at all when I am on locally.
Here in Lakeland; 1230 and 1430 run ABC. 1430 runs whatever the Florida News Network is now (it sold out to Cheap Channel/I Fart Media not long ago) at the bottom of the hour. 1130/102.1 translator runs Faux "News" at the top of most hours. I'm not sure about 1490 or 1570.

The WTAN/WDCF/WZHR "trimulcast" offers the white label NBC News Radio product for 2 minutes at the TOH around the clock, followed by 60 seconds of inventory...
