• Cumulus Media has launched the first Sports and Sports Betting radio station in the Providence market, by flipping WPRV-AM 790 from “Talk and Business” to The Score 790. The new station brings sports and sports betting news, information, and insights to the burgeoning and underserved sports betting audience in the Providence area with a mix of local (Kevin McNamara) and syndicated (Jim Rome) programming and shows from the BetQL Network – Bet MGM, Bet QL Daily, You Better You Bet, Bet MGM Tonight, and After Hours With Amy Lawrence.

Holly Paras, VP/Market Manager of Cumulus Providence, said, “It’s official: 790 The Score is now Providence’s best bet for sports fans and sports betting enthusiasts, and we couldn’t be more excited! The station features a lineup of expert personalities that deliver unique sports talk and sports betting insights that entertain, inform, and engage, along with New England Patriots Football, New York Yankees Baseball, Boston Celtics Basketball, and Brown University Football and Basketball play-by-play. We think Providence sports and sports betting fans will love 790 The Score!” BetQL Network programming is provided by Cumulus Media’s Westwood One.
