- United Radio Broadcasters of New Orleans
United Radio Broadcasters of New Orleans was a of radio stations in Greater New Orleans, Louisiana, formed in response to the crisis of Hurricane Katrina. It began on 1 September 2005. Led by WWL-AM, the stations shared equipment, space, and personnel, and simulcast public affairs and public service programming—including efforts to reunite families.
The arrangement was unique in that it involved the cooperation of two large, rival media companies, Clear Channel Communications and Entercom Communications. Other participants included the Louisiana Network and independent stations KLCL in Lake Charles and KJEF in Jennings. It eventually included six stations broadcasting in Louisiana, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida. It also broadcast over the Internet.
United Radio Broadcasters of New Orleans was disbanded on 4 November 2005.
