Radio One and WBT (News Talk 1110) and WBT-FM, along with The Carolina Journal, have announced a partnership to add The Carolina Journal News Hour on heritage News/Talk station in Charlotte. The live, one-hour program will air weekday mornings from 5-6am beginning September 16 and will be hosted by talk host and public speaker Nick Craig of The Carolina Journal.

The Carolina Journal News Hour on WBT will focus on state-wide news, politics, and business stories that impact the lives of the residents of Charlotte and all of North Carolina utilizing the resources of The Carolina Journal. Additionally, local traffic, sports and weather reports from the WBT news team will be featured in each show.

"I am beyond excited about the incredible opportunity to work with the John Locke Foundation/Carolina Journal and the iconic WBT radio," said Craig. "Bringing talk radio to a new generation is not just a personal passion of mine but a vital step in shaping the future of political discourse. I am eager to embark on this journey to elevate the level of political conversation for years to come."

Carolina Journal Editor-In-Chief Donna King added, "This powerful partnership will take the public conversation to a new level in North Carolina. Carolina Journal and WBT each have a long history of pioneering journalism, offering North Carolinians fact-based news and analysis that matters. Whether in politics, investigative stories, or public policy, the combined resources of our organizations ensure up-to-the-minute coverage and context that listeners truly cannot get anywhere else."
