97.9 WHAV/Haverhill MA to Air CBS News Radio

WHAV (97.9 The Wave)/Haverhill, MA

WHAV (97.9 The Wave)/Haverhill, MA's original and comprehensive local news coverage will soon be complemented by CBS News Radio's national and world news. WHAV recently entered into an affiliation agreement with CBS News Radio. The Oldies outlet plans to air unsponsored CBS News Newsbriefs, special reports, breaking news and certain shortform features beginning Monday, June 3.

"Although a low power, community station, WHAV has always punched above its weight with seasoned journalists and broadcasters, reaching the more than 200,000 people within its over-the-air footprint. Its original, local reporting, now augmented by CBS News, meets a public need especially during this time of shrinking and disappearing local newsrooms," said WHAV President and CEO Tim Coco.
