Explaining the station switch to Patch on Friday, Rennebeck said, “The message we deliver really is about Pittsburgh and its people. The question was how do we continue to grow that message, how do we get it to even more listeners and viewers?”
KDKA “is legendary,” Chamberlin added. “Not that we’re legends at all.”
