iHeartMedia's News/Talk KFBK-AM in Sacramento will celebrate its 100th birthday on Saturday, September 17 and will air a weeklong celebration to mark the occasion. The station signed on September 17, 1922 and has been a launching pad for national talent including Rush Limbaugh and Tom Sullivan. The celebration will feature archival audio, plus a station history section on KFBK100Years.com, plus a live event on Friday, September 21 hosted by co-owned News/Talk KSTE-AM along with syndicated hosts Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty and KFBK air personalities.

"One hundred consecutive years of informing Northern California is a remarkable accomplishment, part of the enduring legacy that is KFBK," said Market President Sara McClure. "I'm proud to be part of this organization at this point in time and grateful to be sharing it with the talented team of people who make KFBK News Radio what it is today."

PD Bill White added, "The founding principle of KFBK News Radio remains the same today as it did in 1922, to provide relevant local news and information. Through the generations, KFBK's team of talented news anchors, reporters, and talk hosts continues to proudly uphold that mission, to serve the listeners of Sacramento and Northern California."
