WCBS 880 NEWS - Current news themes

Announcer: “Live … from our Midtown studios … THIS is WCBS NewsRadio 88.” Me: “Good morning! 8 a.m. and the rain continues to come down! Your full forecast coming up … but first, let’s check on your ride in to work.”

Wow! The second 60 second track was used for the Newsbeat Morning, with Rich Mayk and Catherine Adams, from WDIV Channel 4 Detroit, during the early/mid 1990s. Great tunes!

0:01 - “News, Traffic and Weather! On Air, Online. We are Newsradio, WCBS 880!!!” This brings back so many memories.

I always remembered it but instead of WCBS 880, it was "WCBS New York"

@@emlee703 I will admit, with ESPN taking over WCBS now, I’ll have more purpose to listen into 880 now because I love hockey. I love my sports updates and I’m pretty sure they’ll talk about the NHRA and auto racing as well which is something I really like. I’m sure they’ll also talk about the World Cup, the Olympics, hell even WWE. I also know that they will have the Pat McAfee show and Mike Greenberg on 880 now which really gets me excited. Now I have a purpose for 880 regularly.

That last piece sounded quite familiar to me. I think that was WDIV's package in the late eighties.
