About DBpedia

CFTR CityNews 680 (formerly 680 News AM) is a commercial all-news radio station licensed to Toronto, Ontario, serving the Greater Toronto Area. Owned by the Rogers Sports & Media subsidiary of Rogers Communications, the station became Canada's first solo station to broadcast an all-news radio format, following in the footsteps of the CKO national all-news radio network, a format that has since been replicated in major markets across the country. The CFTR studios are located at the Rogers Building at Bloor and Jarvis Streets in downtown Toronto, while the station transmitter is located on the southern edge of Lake Ontario at Oakes and Winston Road (near the QEW and Casablanca Road) in nearby Grimsby.

dbo:abstract CFTR CityNews 680 (formerly 680 News AM) is a commercial all-news radio station licensed to Toronto, Ontario, serving the Greater Toronto Area. Owned by the Rogers Sports & Media subsidiary of Rogers Communications, the station became Canada's first solo station to broadcast an all-news radio format, following in the footsteps of the CKO national all-news radio network, a format that has since been replicated in major markets across the country. The CFTR studios are located at the Rogers Building at Bloor and Jarvis Streets in downtown Toronto, while the station transmitter is located on the southern edge of Lake Ontario at Oakes and Winston Road (near the QEW and Casablanca Road) in nearby Grimsby. While CFTR broadcasts at the maximum power for Canadian AM stations, 50,000 watts, it must use a complicated directional antenna system to avoid interfering with other stations on 680 AM. In addition to a standard analog transmission, CFTR is simulcast on the second HD digital subchannel of CKIS-FM, and is available online. CityNews 680 is also simulcast on Bell Satellite TV channel 958. (en) CFTR, plus connu sous son nom 680 News, est une station de radio canadienne anglophone d'information en continu appartenant à Rogers Media située à Toronto et diffusant sur la région du Grand Toronto. Fondée en 1962, elle émet en direct 24 heures sur 24, sept jours sur sept, sur la fréquence 680 kHz en modulation d'amplitude (AM). Il s'agit de la première station d'information au Canada (diffusée sous cette forme à partir du 6 juillet 1993), avec un "roue" format : la circulation et la météo toutes les 10 minutes (avec prévisions de 5 jours à :21/:51), sports à :15/:45, économie à :26/:56, et bourse (Bourse Minute) à :13/:43 entre 5 h 30 et 18 h 30 en semaine. Ce journal régulier peut être diffusé dans deux autres stations: NEWS 1130 (Vancouver) et 660 NEWS (Calgary), également dans toutes les stations de nouvelles de Rogers Media tous les matins et après-midi. Il y 5 tranches horaires chaque jour en semaine sur la radio : 5/10, 10/14, 14/19, 19/0 et 0/5. Du week-end, il y 4 : 5/11, 11/17, 17/23 et 23/5. (fr)
