KOMO/Seattle is Now KNWN -- Northwest Newsradio

KNWN-AM and FM

As previously reported, KOMO-AM & FM/Seattle will become KNWN-AM & FM -- new call letters that Lotus says reflects its continued commitment of being the "Northwest's Newsradio leader." The change was a condition of Sinclair Broadcast Group's sale of radio stations (KOMO, KPLZ (Star 101.5) and KVI) to Lotus Communications Corp.

"Our commitment as the market's leader in local and global news will not change. The same voices and outstanding news coverage that the Northwest has depended on will remain, as well as the station's news and weather content sharing partnership with KOMO television," said the company.

General Manager Gary Greenberg commented, "We honor the 95-year history of KOMO radio and its importance to our region. Lotus is fully committed to growing KNWN as the Northwest's news and information leader by further engaging our community, advertisers and listeners."
