• UPDATED: Cumulus Media announced that all 424 of its radio stations across the U.S., along with Westwood One’s Urban brands, will air an eight-minute and 46-second audio tribute to George Floyd today at Noon CT/1pm ET/10am PT. The nationwide tribute, titled 8:46 — Remembering George Floyd, aligns with Floyd’s burial ceremony today in Houston and will honor him and the many other victims that have perished at the hands of systemic racism.
Kenny Smoov, Vice President, Urban Formats, Cumulus Media and Westwood One, said, “People are tired. They want Change now. They want Peace now. It’s a beautiful thing to see people from outside of the African American community and from all over the world coming together to say ENOUGH! Let’s be the living generation that ends systemic racism!”
