Radio & Television Business Report
The partnership between KRSK-FM “105.1 The Fan” and the Portland Timbers means the team’s matches will air across both KRSK and KFXX-AM 1080, which comprise the “FAN Sports Network.”Select matches will air exclusively on either KRSK or KFXX, with a schedule pending.
“Together, we’re committed to delivering high-quality coverage and meaningful access for fans, so The Fan becoming the radio home of the Portland Timbers was a natural fit.
This new partnership brings fresh energy and excitement to how fans will follow the club on match days and throughout the week on The Fan’s wide variety of local programming.”With the new agreement, The Fan is launching “Timbers FAN,” a weekly show hosted by Apple TV’s lead MLS play-by-play announcer, Jake Zivin; and The Fan’s midday host, Patrick Harris.
The program will feature interviews with players and coaches, as well as updates on the team and T2 squads.
“Timbers FAN” will air Tuesdays in the 7pm Pacific hour, starting February 10.
