Norfolk Gets Funny

The joke is on the Norfolk market as Sinclair Communications flips its 850 AM WTAR to comedy radio around the clock.

Funny 850 features continuous stand-up comedy from the likes of Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, Dane Cook, Wanda Sykes, Jeff Foxworthy and others. In addition, it will feature laughs from touring comics who visit local comedy stages in Norfolk.

The station is an affiliate of  24/7 Comedy Radio, launched last September, is produced by the Donkey Comedy Network and distributed via Citadel Media.

Some of WTAR's talk programming has been shifted to sister-station 790 AM WNIS.

In Kansas City, Funny 102.5 continues to trend nicely 4.0-3.8-3.6 (6+ Persons, Total Week) since flipping to All Comedy in February 2011. Funny 102.5 airs via the HD2 channel for 94.9 KCMO-FM plus a translator K273BZ at 102.5-FM.
