KTAR is Arizona’s News Station with the Edward R. Murrow Award-winning news, talk and digital teams producing more live and local content than any other media entity in the state. KTAR is also proud of its charitable contributions, most notably the largest children’s hospital radio fundraiser in America, the Give-A-Thon for Phoenix Children’s Hospital, which raised a record-breaking $1.91 million in 2020. IMPACT OF 2021 TRENDS: “With smart speaker sales on fire, ‘radio’ is back in the home in a big way with voice search and frictionless audio distribution.
