Washington, D.C., – Two more radio stations, Infinity’s KYW in Philadelphia and Journal Broadcast Group’s WTMJ in Milwaukee, have joined the growing list of major market radio stations building multimedia sites using AP CustomNews, a popular multimedia online content system. CustomNews is a continually updated news and information service that replicates the design, structure and branding of a station’s Web site. It’s a turnkey solution for stations that want to retain the look and design of their own site while adding AP’s comprehensive coverage, without a major investment in outside resources.
 
“Building a strong and effective web presence to capture the online audience is an essential growth strategy for any broadcaster” said AP Radio General Manager Thom Callahan. “Our CustomNews service saves time, resources, and is designed to keep web visitors on our member's sites".
