We want to be the oasis in the desert and provide Grant County and the surrounding areas with local news and information and feel that Steve and the morning show will do just that.” McCord added “News has become opinion no matter what side of the aisle you sit on. We will provide facts and information and let the public decide for themselves. We will not be ambulance chasers and will not focus on any drama but focus on facts.”
Radio Classics will officially begin on November 11th. You can find Radio Classics on line at radioclassics.live and from there download the FREE smartphone app. You can also use your Alexa by saying “Alexa, enable Radio Classics dot live skill”
