Weiss and Cibrowski announce they’re shutting down CBS News Radio, which has ~700 affiliated stations, on May 22. "Unfortunately, this decision means that all positions within the CBS News Radio team are being eliminated.”
Thus, the CBS Radio Network (b. 1927) will be terminated at the age of 99.
CBS Radio was the foundation of American broadcast journalism. Over five decades I filed hundreds of news reports for it and felt immense pride to have been on the same network as Murrow, Sevareid, Smith, Collingwood, Cronkite, Edwards, Trout, Townsend, Kuralt, Rather, Stahl, Knoller & Portnoy.

@newsguyusa The only reason people are upset is that they know what's going on! Brought to you by "if we stop testing, cases will go down".

didn't Portnoy have a complaint?
But yes the station of Murrow and Cronkite is a huge loss, hopefully the archives get saved.

@newsguyusa The leap from global, viscerally physical media, to ethereal, too-soft localization with cellphones, was too much, too fast. It's a critical behavioral error, leading to increasingly destabilizing root infrastructure metrics. Combine effects like Milankovitch Cycles being on full-tilt, and it's a recipe for disaster.

@newsguyusa I'm 72. As kid I spent a fair amt of time at my grandparents' house. About the only time the TV got turned on was for Lawrence Welk, Ed Sullivan & The Wonderful World of Disney. A radio was on somewhere almost all the time, whether in the background or as a primary form of news/entertainment.
My grandparents' generation is gone, but that they formed *my* parents & they, in turn, formed my generation.
Ending radio programs pushes the masses to places like Fox & other propaganda.

@newsguyusa I wonder if the corporation is doing this more to save money OR to act like censorship OR because the corporation sees radio news as declining market?

@karlauerbach
The stations were sold off a couple years ago. CBS News Radio was basically just a network.
They at least used to also have a sports radio network that was carried on one station at the cluster I used to work at. I think that's been gone a hot minute

@newsguyusa So much for conservatism

@fallonme@mastodon.social
Radio is still doing well in a few markets where the stations have a lot of local relevance, but the business side says just run it with as few people as possible using all national programming and music logs that loop the Billboard top six tracks. A station can be off the air for a week and no one notices. As a whole, radio has been mostly destroyed.
