The sale of news/talk station WCHB-AM is to Crawford Broadcasting and is expected to close this summer. Radio One Detroit Market Manager Kathy Stinehour said, “To get what you’ve never had, you have to do what you’ve never done. We view this as an opportunity to move the WCHB voice to a larger FM platform and intend to super-serve our listeners with urban music, community engagement and inspiration – what we do best.”
The Mildred Gaddis Show, which has been a staple in Detroit on AM 1200, will move to Radio One’s WPZR-FM from 10 a.m. to noon when the deal closes. Gaddis has been entertaining on the radio for 40 years.
