WJZ-FM 105.7 “The Fan”: Big Changes as sports takes over the CBS FM

WHFS-FM 105.7 is no longer. Now it is know as WJZ-FM 105.7 “The Fan.” ESPN 1300 becomes all network national radio with the local shows moving to the FM band.
CBS has changed things around and now Ed Norris is the morning show from 6am to 10am starting today. From 10am to 1pm The Mark Viviano Show with Damon Bull Dog Yaffe. Then it is FOX 45 sports director Bruce Cunningham taking over the 1pm to 3pm time slot with the new team of Anita Marks and Scott Garceau taking over drive time from 3 to 7pm.
This now gives Baltimore at least for the time being four all sports radio stations with ESPN 1300AM, WNSTAM 1570 and Fox Sports Radio 1370AM.
The move to make 105.7FM Baltimore’s top sports talker was a bold one on the part of CBS. They added Bruce Cunningham to the mix and he will of course still be seen on FOX 45. But the biggest move come by pairing Baltimore sports legend and former WMAR sports director Garceau with the markets top drive time sports personality in Marks. They will now team up for what could be Baltimore’s best sports show. The program will continue on MASN.
