Outlet track record
WBT
U.S. right (local talk programming)
WBT is a Charlotte, North Carolina AM/FM news-talk station owned by Audacy, a large publicly traded radio conglomerate, and funded through advertising. Its local hosts and syndicated lineup (including Mark Levin, Michael Knowles, and Ben Ferguson) skew conservative, and the station is often described as a conservative-talk outlet in an otherwise Democratic-leaning city. Its opinion programming has generally been favorable toward the Trump administration, while its news segments are largely wire-service and locally reported.
Owned byAudacy, Inc. (formerly Entercom, which acquired WBT from Greater Media in 2017; Entercom merged with CBS Radio in 2017 and rebranded as Audacy in 2021)
