TRN clears Mancow on XTRA-AM LA
XTRA Sports AM LA (KLAC-AM) announced TRN's Mancow's Morning Madhouse will debut 5/23 in Morning Drive from 4:30AM-9:00AM. Clear Channel LA says it has decided to reinvent New York's WFAN's morning formula on the West Coast with XTRA.
"Clear Channel LA has made a compelling business case to us (TRN-FM) for why they should be Mancow's home in LA at XTRA AM 570. The investments they are willing to make, the fact that their other AM (KFI) out billed the biggest FM's in the market and the outstanding track record of their team ultimately convinced us that Clear Channel is the right place for Mancow's Morning Madhouse in LA's competitive market, says Mark Masters, TRN CEO.
