forget CNN. Listen to this radio station for continuing Hurricane Isaac coverage.
WWL 870 in New Orleans (wwl.com). Check this station out if not satisfied with cable news.
WWL continuing coverage is being simulcast on other Entercom-owned stations in New Orleans like ESPN 1350 (sports) or 95.7 the Bayou (classic rock).
Because WWL is a 50 kw clear channel station, at night WWL's signal blasts a very long distance throughout the central US. That is why the NPR AM station in Lansing, Michigan (WKAR 870) is daytime only. If you are curious about Isaac and living in the Great Lakes, Great Plains, Ozarks, or anywhere in the South, tune your radio to 870 tonight.
Finally, I would like to extend my uncompromised support to the people of New Orleans and other regions affected by Isaac. And i've heard that WWL's Garland Robinette is a cool, even possibly left leaning, radio host. True?
So far i've heard a top of the hour news update, public safety press conference, interview with a local politician, and the host calling out punks who drive fast thru floods. Also, WWL is taking calls from people observing the storm.
