About us

Your history books tell you that KDKA, the world’s pioneer broadcast station, signed on the air Nov. 2, 1920, with Harding-Cox election returns. Today, we employ one of the industry’s largest staffs, with ten full-time anchors, reporters and editors. We broadcast news and talk programming 24 hours a day over a 50,000-watt signal that reaches 38 states and several Canadian provinces at night. CBS Radio owns KDKA and three FM stations in Pittsburgh: WTZN (93.7 The Zone), WDSY (Y108) and WZPT (Star 100.7). Our FM studios are at a separate location in Green Tree. We share a building and some news resources with KDKA-TV, Pittsburgh’s CBS-TV affiliate. You can learn more about us at KDKAradio.com.
