Boston's News Radio

History: Founded in 1921 in Springfield, Massachusetts by Westinghouse Electric. It received the first commercial broadcasting license in the U.S. on September 15, 1921, with first broadcast on September 19, 1921. Early affiliate of NBC (1926–1927). Moved to Boston in 1931, power increased to 50,000 watts (clear channel status), transmitter later relocated to Hull. From 1920s–1970s it was a full-service station: pop music, personality DJs (e.g., Carl DeSuze, Dave Maynard), sports (Red Sox, Bruins, Celtics), and local programming. Shifted to talk in the 1980s and full all-news format in the 2000s. Ownership changed from CBS to iHeartMedia in 2017. Celebrated 100 years in 2021.
Current content (2026): Primarily all-news / news-talk format. Daytime (typically 5 AM–8 PM) continuous news, breaking stories, traffic and weather (Traffic and Weather Together on the 3's – every 10 minutes on the :03). Hosts include Jeff Brown (morning), Nichole Davis, Ben Parker. Evening talk show like NightSide with Dan Rea. Overnight all-news or syndicated. Strengths: strong local Boston/New England focus, reliability in crises, and streaming via iHeart app. Transmitter in Hull (50 kW, two towers), clear channel reaches far at night.
