Radio One has announced a partnership with Fox Television Stations’ “Fox 5” WAGA Atlanta to carry the content of WAGA’s livestream on 107.9 WHTA-HD2 Hampton GA.
The simulcast will include all of WAGA’s locally produced content including its local news and sports programming as well as their weekday talkshow “Portia.” It carries replays of its most recent newscasts in most other weekday timeslots.
WAGA SVP/General Manager Bill Schneider stated, “Our team at FOX 5 is constantly seeking out new ways to deliver our news, weather, sports and lifestyle programming to north Georgia consumers in whatever way is most convenient for them. Making our streaming audio available to radio listeners is an important part of that effort and we’re grateful to the professionals at Radio One Atlanta for helping to make that happen.”
Radio One Atlanta Operations Manager Derek Harper added, “We have had an excellent partnership with Fox 5. Streaming their local news content on our HOT 107.9 HD2 channel will bring even more original content to our listeners.”
