Utica NY Radio: WIBX Partners With TV for Content

News/Talk WIBX 950 AM's Keeler in the Morning has announced a partnership with local television stations WFXV and WUTR beginning on Monday July 6.

The Keeler in the Morning program will be simulcast LIVE on WFXV Fox-33 in Utica each weekday morning 6-9a.m.

‘This is an eavesdropping situation where the audience gets to eavesdrop on our program everyday. And this is a raw feed, basically this is one camera shooting the studio with audio for three straight hours. It is unprecedented…this is to me one of the coolest things that we could offer to an audience,’ Bill Keeler said when announcing the partnership on the air Thursday morning.

Additionally, WIBX announced that WUTR’s ‘Eyewitness News at Six’ will be simulcast on the station weekday evening from 6:00 – 6:30 p.m.

‘We’re really happy to be able to offer our radio listeners a longer form newscast at 6:00 weekday evenings. The team in the newsroom at WUTR does an excellent job of informing their viewers of the latest local and national stories and we look forward to sharing that product with our listeners on WIBX,’ said WIBX Brand Manager Jeff Monaski.
