Perspectives On The Return Of WCBS-FM

The New York Daily News’ David Hinckley offers his perspective on the return of WCBS-FM. Read the full article here.

After a two-year hiatus and losing millions of dollars in revenue, CBS Radio President Dan Mason is making the right move in NYC with the return of WCBS-FM.

No matter your format preference, WCBS-FM is a case study for a station launch/relaunch.

The former Oldies station now positioned as “New York’s Greatest Hits” is packaged with fresh imaging and an updated, well-researched playlist that includes 80s music along with its 60s and 70s classic hits.

And the
wcbsfm.com website allows the station’s former and new fans to listen live and experience video highlighting the station’s historic return.
