Clear Channel’s 1400 WBBD Wheeling, WV has dropped the 24/7 Comedy network and flipped to Sports as “Fox Sports 1400“.
WBBD is running the Fox Sports network lineup around the clock and is the second 24/7 Comedy affiliate to switch to Sports in recent weeks following sister 1580 WWTF Lexington, KY.
WBBD was one of 12 Clear Channel stations to switch to Comedy in October 2012. The stations registered a 0.0 share of the Wheeling audience in the Fall 2013 Nielsen Audio ratings.
This explains why WKKX just picked up Yahoo! Sports Radio for evenings and overnights; until late last week, the station was carrying FSR during those hours.
And now WCHI/1350 Chillicothe – the last remaining 24/7 Comedy affil in Ohio – has flipped to “EZ1350.”
