KABC, news/talk radio station in Los Angeles
KABC is a talk radio station based in the Los Angeles area of California, focused on news, opinion, and information programming. It broadcasts on AM frequency and reaches listeners across Southern California.
KABC first went on air in the 1920s, making it one of the oldest radio stations in Southern California. Over the decades it shifted formats several times before settling into a talk-focused programming model.
The station can be heard on a standard AM radio or through online streaming services from anywhere. Listeners who prefer on-demand access can also find archived shows through the station's digital platforms.
KABC became the first radio station in the United States to switch entirely to a talk format without music, doing so in 1960. That decision influenced how many other stations shaped their programming in the years that followed.
