iHeartMedia/Birmingham debuts of the new "BIN 92.7," as part of BIN: Black Information Network, the recently launched 24/7 national audio news service dedicated to providing continual news coverage with a Black voice and perspective. "BIN 92.7" will air 24/7 national and local news focused on serving the Black community with national on-air anchors and correspondents including broadcaster Ed Gordon and journalist Roland Martin.
"BIN's goal has always been to be the most trusted source for news in the Black community, and part of that strategy is, of course, to be available on both broadcast and digital stations across America," said BIN: Black Information Network President Tony Coles. "We're thrilled to bring BIN, a full-time news service by and for the Black community, to Birmingham and provide listeners there with both the national and local news that impacts their lives."
"Adding BIN: Black Information Network not only will be additive to our diverse portfolio of radio brands in Birmingham, but it will also fill a critical void for a high quality, trusted source of 24/7 news coverage with a Black voice and perspective, focused on service to the Black community," added iHeartMedia Alabama/Florida Community Markets Area Senior Vice President Programming Tom Hanrahan.
