It’s Just Business… ROCK 92.9/Boston Moving
• Beasley Classic Rock WBOS (ROCK 92.9)/Boston is leaving its frequency — it’s true. Effective Sept. 3 at 12pm ET, the format, along with syndicated morning show Dave and Chuck the Freak are relocating to WBOS-HD2/W291CZ (106.1), WRCA-1330 AM and to the ROCK 92.9 app and stream. Why? Because Beasley and Bloomberg have made a deal to air Bloomberg Radio, the world’s only global 24-hour business radio service on 92.9.
“This expansion of our partnership with Beasley Media Group will allow us to exponentially expand Bloomberg Radio’s reach in Boston,” said Anthony Mancini, Head of Bloomberg Audio. “Moving to a full market FM frequency will give us the bandwidth we need to have an increased presence in the region, and the capacity to bring even more listeners Bloomberg’s in-depth coverage of the financial markets and beyond.”
“We’re excited to expand our great partnership with a global news and business leader of Bloomberg’s magnitude,” said Mary Menna, Beasley RVP/Northeast. “This unique programming underscores the company’s commitment to providing our listeners with the very best content and compliments our other Boston brands: 98.5 The Sports Hub, HOT 96.9, WROR 105.7 and Country 102.5.”
ROCK 92.9 PD Adam 12 explains it all right here, wrapping up with this nugget: “Listen after Dave & Chuck the Freak on Tuesday, September 3 as I say goodbye to ROCK 92.9, much like I did at WFNX in 2012 and WBCN in 2009. Third time’s a charm!”
