Fox Sports Radio, abbreviated FSR, is an international radio network consisting of sports talk programming all day, every day. The network is a service of Premiere Radio Networks (a subsidiary of Clear Channel Communications). Fox Sports itself has minimal control over the network; it is simply branded as such per a two-way marketing agreement.
The network is operated from the Premiere Radio Networks studios on Ventura Boulevard in Sherman Oaks, California. Fox Sports personalities broadcast from studios across the country. FSR broadcasts 24/7 sports programming and airs Fox Sports News (sports headlines and highlights) every thirty minutes.
The network is available on more than 290 affiliates across the United States and Canada, and can also be heard on XM Satellite Radio channel 142. FSR is broadcast in New Zealand on Radio Sport. Launched on August 28, 2000, Fox Sports Radio had about 50 affiliates nationwide.
Fox Sports Radio had a very quiet launch, as most of its affiliates in major markets were in contracts with ESPN Radio or Sporting News Radio as well as FSR, which made getting programs heard rather hard, as its few full time affiliates were mostly daytime only stations or had very weak signals at night. The Sports Fan Radio Network ceased operations shortly after FSR's initial launch, allowing former SFRN affiliates to join the new FSR rather easily. One of the hosts on the Sports Fan Radio Network, J. T.
the Brick, also joined Fox Sports Radio shortly thereafter.
