Description

Rogers Sports and Media just pulled the plug on six stations nationwide, including beloved Waterloo Region staple CityNews 570 — a talk radio fixture since the 90s — after a sudden shutdown with a heartfelt farewell message. Citing declining listenership and revenue, the company says the move is necessary, though it’s a gut punch for loyal fans and staff. The station’s license is being returned to the CRTC, but Rogers promises continued coverage online. All this comes on the same day they announced a $4.35 billion takeover of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment — a whirlwind of change for the media giant.
