The newly minted Los Angeles Chargers have agreed in principle to multi-year television and radio agreements that will make KABC-TV/Los Angeles, iHeartMedia Los Angeles, KAZA-TV (Azteca America 54) and KFWB 980 AM the team’s official flagship English and Spanish-language broadcast partners.
As the Chargers’ new flagship English-language radio partner, iHeartMedia News-Talk KFI-AM/Los Angeles will air all Chargers preseason, regular season and postseason games. KFI and sisters KYSR (ALT 98.7) and KLAC (AM 570 LA Sports) will also broadcast 10 hours of bonus game day coverage. iHeartMedia’s eight Los Angeles radio stations will also support the Chargers with year-round programming and promotional content, including a weekly Chargers series that will air on AM 570 LA Sports during the season, and broadcasts will also be available on iHeartRadio.
Kevin LeGrett, President, Southwest Division for iHeartMedia remarked, “The Chargers’ passionate fans are a huge part of iHeartMedia Los Angeles’ listening community, and we’re excited to bring them the latest Chargers news, games, compelling insights and team events in real time. We are excited for the NFL season to start and to connect our listeners wherever they are with Los Angeles’ newest team, the L.A. Chargers.”
