CBS Will Have Two Sports Stations In D.C.

1-21-2013

Gov.Biz Radio will no longer exist in Washington D.C. as of January 28. CBS will take that dial position for its new 24-hour sports network, giving the company two sports stations in the number seven market. CBS also owns 106.7 The Fan in D.C. which is the home of the very popular Sports Junkies morning show. They'll now compete with Tiki Barber, Brandon Tierney, and Dana Jacobson in the morning slot, in addition to both stations having a full roster of sports talkers.

CBS Sports Radio 1580?s launch coincides with the Super Bowl, as the network provides nearly 75 hours of unprecedented access, live from New Orleans, in anticipation of the CBS Television Network?s exclusive broadcast of Super Bowl XLVII on Sunday, February 3. Listeners can hear the station at 1580AM, www.cbsdc.com, or via the Radio.com app for a variety of mobile devices.
Steve Swenson, Senior Vice President/Market Manager, CBS Radio Washington, D.C. says, ?We are proud to offer area sports fans an All-Star lineup that caters to their local and national sports interests. 106.7 THE FAN knows D.C. sports like no one else, and CBS Sports is a clear leader when it comes to breaking down the day?s headlines and stories breaking across the country. As a result of this impressive combination of stations, there?s no argument we will be the dominant sports voice in the city.?
