Here's something for the local business owners in our feed 👇

A brand-new industry report just confirmed what NWA business owners already know from experience: radio still reaches more people, more consistently, than almost anything else out there. New Nielsen data shows AM/FM radio reaches 87% of adults every week — and among younger adults (18-34), radio actually reaches MORE people weekly than any other type of media.

Translation: your customers are still listening. To 106.5 KBVA, The X 104.9, 96.7 The Bull, and Freedom FM 101.5 — in their cars, on their phones, at work, at home.

If you've been wondering whether radio advertising still works in 2026... yeah, it still works. 😉

Over the last 30 days, 479 Media generated an estimated 877,512 over-the-air FM listening sessions across Northwest Arkansas.

And that's before counting streaming, mobile apps, websites, smart speakers, podcasts, and other digital listening.

Local radio is still one of the most powerful ways to reach customers where buying decisions happen—behind the wheel.
