GBH (WGBH) 89.7 🇺🇸

GBH 89.7, formerly WGBH, was founded in 1951 and stands as a cornerstone of Boston's media landscape, operating at the frequency of 89.7 FM. As one of the flagship stations of GBH, a major public media organization, the station primarily broadcasts news and information, with a strong emphasis on in-depth reporting and cultural programming. The station is owned and operated by the GBH Educational Foundation. GBH 89.7 serves the Greater Boston area, but its signal extends to eastern Massachusetts, southern New Hampshire, and Rhode Island, while also streaming content worldwide. The station is a primary NPR affiliate, broadcasting flagship programs such as *Morning Edition*, *All Things Considered*, *Fresh Air*, *Weekend Edition Saturday*, and *Weekend Edition Sunday*. GBH also produces its own local and national content, including *Boston Public Radio* hosted by Jim Braude and Margery Eagan, *The World* in co-production with PRX, and *Innovation Hub*. While primarily focused on news and information, GBH 89.7 also includes classical music programming during specific hours. In recent years, the WGBH Educational Foundation rebranded as GBH, reflecting its broader mission.
