The mayor of Hamilton, Andrea Horwath, calls the sudden closure of CHML "devastating."
The station has served the community for 97 years, but today Corus pulled the plug on it saying "We want to extend our profound gratitude to all of our listeners, valued advertisers and community partners - thank you for your steadfast support throughout the years." "Your loyalty and this community have been the foundation of our station's legacy and we deeply value the connection we've shared with you."
Meanwhile at Corus London today, AM980 laid off two full-time and two part-time reporters and news readers.
Corus says by the end of August it expects to cut 25% of its full-time workforce; nearly 800 jobs.
