All-news radio
Encyclopedia
All-news radio is a radio format
devoted entirely to discussion and broadcast of news
.
All-news radio is available in both local and syndicated forms, and is carried in some form on both major US satellite radio
networks. Some all-news stations, like KYW
, WBBM
and WCBS
, carry sports, and all-news stations may occasionally carry public affairs programs, simulcasts of TV news magazine or political affairs shows like 60 Minutes
and Face the Nation
, and national radio shows revolving around news such as the CBS News Weekend Roundup
. Some all news stations, like KNX
and WBZ
, run talk radio
programs on weekends and during off peak hours, while WBBM also carries programming revolving around the NFL Chicago Bears
, as that station airs the play-by-play for the team. Some CBS news radio stations also air When Radio Was
in the overnight hours, a nightly program featuring rebroadcasts of old time radio. Most of these stations are owned by CBS Radio
, and therefore are affiliated with the CBS Radio network.
Many stations brand themselves Newsradio but only run continuous news during the morning and afternoon drive time
s. These stations are properly labeled as "news/talk" talk radio
stations. Also, some National Public Radio stations identify themselves as News and Information stations, which means that in addition to running the NPR news magazines like Morning Edition
and All Things Considered
, they run other information programs such as Day to Day
, Talk of the Nation
, and the BBC World Service
.
Broadcasting pioneer Arthur W. Arundel is credited with creating the first 24-hour All News station, radio or television, in the United States in January 1961 on his owned and operated WAVA
in Washington
. The station’s success was largely driven by a Nation’s Capital audience then riveted to news of the Vietnam War and the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King and Robert F. Kennedy. Arundel helped other stations in New York
and Chicago
also to convert to his All News All the Time format and then met direct competition from Washington Post
-owned WTOP
in 1969.
Radio programmer Gordon McLendon
, who has been credited with pioneering top 40, all-sports, background music and telephone talk formats, is also an acknowledged pioneer in the all-news format. XTRA News went on the air May 5, 1961 from XETRA, a station licensed to Tijuana, Mexico, that could be heard as far away as Los Angeles, followed shortly afterwards by W-NUS
in Chicago.
Its format, which can be heard to this day on many all-news stations, was to start each half hour with world and national news, preferably from a network, then switch to locally-anchored area news, filling out the half hour with sports, business news and features. XETRA had no outside reporters and got all of its local news from the AP
and UPI
wire services. Both stations operated using a 15 minute news cycle (newscasts repeated every 15 minutes)
Another early prototypical all-news format was in use by WABC-FM
in New York during the 114-day 1962 New York City newspaper strike
which lasted from December 8, 1962 to March 31, 1963. The format only lasted as long as the strike, though, and reverted to its regular format of Broadway show tunes
and simulcast
ing of its AM sister station
after the strike ended. The following year, ABC's Detroit FM station, WXYZ-FM
made a similar effort during a newspaper strike. Both stations, which previously had simulcast their AM sister stations, carried ABC Radio Network news programs (including those not usually by the AM Top 40 stations), AM local newscasts plus wire service stories read to fill the balance of the time.
Group W
, the broadcast division of Westinghouse
, adopted an all-news format 30-minute cycle (despite the later slogan "You give us 22 minutes, we'll give you the world.") that eschewed network newscasts so that local and non-local news could be freely mixed, according to what was more interesting or important on any given day. Westinghouse also used field reporters at its all-news stations, which included 1010 WINS
New York, KYW Newsradio 1060
and KFWB News 98
Los Angeles. WINS began broadcasting its all-news format in April 1965. A second New York all-news station, WCBS began all-news programming on August 28, 1967, although its first broadcasts were on its sister FM station after a plane crashed into its tower, knocking the AM station off the air. CBS converted some of its other AM outlets to this WCBS "Newsradio" format over the next several months and years, including WBBM-AM, KCBS-AM, KNX
and WEEI
(which CBS sold in the 1980s).
In 1975, the NBC Radio Network shut down its profitable weekend music and information service NBC Monitor
to launch the News & Information Service (NIS), the first all-news radio network. It was closed two years later in a cost-cutting move though it had strong ratings in some key markets.
In 1994, an effort similar to NIS was launched by the Associated Press. It was officially known as AP All-News Radio and had many affiliates from coast to coast. However, it was informally better known by its promotional title of "The News Station." The Associated Press discontinued the all-news format in July 2005.
The last national all-news radio service in the United States, the audio feed of CNN Headline News, is being phased out by Westwood One
as of 2007. Headline News's audio feed was popular among all-news stations, particularly after the AP disbanded their format in 2005, until the TV station decided to abandon its all-news format and add talk show
programming in prime time
, when many smaller stations do not have air staff and rely on a network feed, in 2006. Only a limited number of affiliates remain as many have become talk radio
stations. (There are, however, a number of daytime-only stations that continue to carry the audio simulcast, now known as HLN.) CNN also for a time offered a second all news-channel with the hour filled with CNN Radio newscasts on the hour and half-hour and business, sports and feature segments from CNN Radio and Headline News at specific points each hour, plus time segments for local news to be inserted. Many smaller affiliates, however, preferred Headline News audio which was more suited to turn-key (or unattended, automated) operation.
While not a full-time NIS, the CBS Radio Network
provides significant content for many, if not most, all-news radio stations in the United States, especially local stations in smaller markets. Talk Radio Network
introduced an all-news service, America's Radio News Network, in 2009, beginning with a midday news block (in the Eastern Time zone)and since expanding into other dayparts; the network has not programmed overnights.
All-news has for years been a top-rated radio format in New York, Washington, D.C., and other cities, but as big city traffic worsens and people work longer hours that increase the urgency of planning their day ahead, the focus of such stations has increasingly been on traffic and weather, often updated every 10 minutes. Attempts at long-form commercial all-news stations, such as Washington Post Radio
, have been largely unsuccessful.
(or CK News). The effort was similar in some ways to NBC Radio's News and Information Service, mostly national news programming with cut-ins for individual stations to broadcast local news. The network was also the first to offer live broadcasts of Question Time in the Canadian parliament. The network was plagued by low ratings and poor advertising sales (similar to problems faced by all-news radio networks operated by NBC, CNN and AP in the US). Ironically, the stations listed below operate in cities which CK News had served previously.

in Toronto.
In February 2001, Corus Entertainment
launched an all-news sister station to Vancouver news-talk station CKNW
. All news NW2 (CJNW AM730, formerly CKLG) was branded as "24 hour news radio, powered by CKNW." NW2 shared newsroom resources with CKNW, including several anchors and reporters. However, NW2 did not achieve broad appeal, and was shut down in May 2002. The station currently airs an all-traffic format under the call sign CHMJ
.
That same year, Corus acquired two all-news stations in Montreal, CINW ("940 News") at 940 AM in English and CINF ("Info 690") at 690 AM in French, which had launched in late 1999. These frequencies were previously operated by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation
's English and French radio services respectively before the public broadcaster switched to the FM dial. But as AM radio listenership in Montreal declined sharply in recent years – only longtime talk-radio stations CJAD in English and CKAC in French (now an all-sports station) remained popular – neither CINW nor CINF were able to make a profit (even after several format changes on CINW), and Corus finally shut down both stations on January 29, 2010.

Between 1977 and 1989 Canada All News Limited operated Canada's first attempt at all news radio with a network of nine FM stations in major Canadian cities, all using the call letters CKOCKO
CKO was a Canadian radio news network which operated from 1977 to 1989. The CKO call sign was shared by twelve network-owned stations, as listed below....
(or CK News). The effort was similar in some ways to NBC Radio's News and Information Service, mostly national news programming with cut-ins for individual stations to broadcast local news. The network was also the first to offer live broadcasts of Question Time in the Canadian parliament. The network was plagued by low ratings and poor advertising sales (similar to problems faced by all-news radio networks operated by NBC, CNN and AP in the US). Ironically, the stations listed below operate in cities which CK News had served previously.
