Newsradio 590 KLBJ serves as Austin's 'News Leader' providing live, local news updates on the hour and half hour seven days a week. It is the only 24 hour broadcast news operation in Austin. KLBJ also keeps Austinites on schedule with 'Skywatch Traffic' updates and weather reports from a team of meteorologists who watch the volatile Texas weather 24 hours a day.
KLBJ's local talk hosts Mark Caesar, Ed Clements, Sergeant Sam Cox and Jeff Ward are always at the forefront of controversial local issues in a city where politics is a contact sport.
In its six decades of service to Austin, KLBJ has always sought to be a leader in community service. Among its notable programs are the 'KLBJ Christmas Wish' and 'KLBJ Clean Sweep'. This heritage of civic involvement was recognized by the National Association of Broadcasters when KLBJ was honored with the 'Crystal Award' for outstanding public service in 1994. KLBJ has also received the National Association of Broadcasters award for 'Medium Market News/Talk Station of the Year'. |
