The new deal will transfer Fox’s longform talk streaming to Audacy’s Amperwave distribution platform enabling it to become the first partner to enable “rewind” capabilities like Audacy offers for its spoken word stations on its app. Audacy will also become the exclusive third-party ad seller for Fox News Audio’s streaming inventory.

Audacy and FOX News Audio have announced that FOX News Audio is expanding its affiliate partnership and will migrate the network’s linear talk radio streaming content to AmperWave, Audacy’s cloud-based distribution and monetization platform for live and on-demand audio streams. The expanded agreement will also make Audacy the exclusive third-party ad sales representation of FOX News Audio’s streaming inventory on the audio network’s digital properties.
This expanded affiliate partnership provides FOX News Audio a trifecta of services: streaming capabilities, sales representation and new capabilities for live broadcasts on its streaming services. FOX News Audio will be the first of Audacy’s affiliate partners to enable “Rewind” capabilities.
“Audacy knows that our industry is changing with listeners consuming more audio on streams than ever before,” said Corey Podolsky, Vice President of Business Development, Audacy. “As a strategic partner, we are excited to lean into that industry shift with FOX News Audio to deliver new capabilities via our AmperWave streaming platform. Coupled with our ability to now offer world-class hosting and ad serving capabilities, this will take our relationship to a whole new level.”
“We’re thrilled to expand our partnership with Audacy and collaborate on serving the growing needs of our listeners,” said William Sanchez, Audio Executive Director of Business Development and Digital Audio Operations, FOX News. “We look forward to improving our audience’s experience with AmperWave’s hosting technology on our platforms.”
Audacy has been delivering FOX News Audio content to its digital platform consumers since 2019.
