Ken Charles (WSB, Atlanta)

We are thrilled to continue our relationship with the people at Bloomberg. They get it right every time out of the box. They are responsive, professional, and can handle the spectrum of business and money news that impacts everyone from the dock worker to the fortune 500 CEO. Our partnership is also invaluable from a revenue standpoint. We meet regularly to identify and create meaningful content that can generate sponsorships on all of our platforms.

Bloomberg Business Reports help us deliver timely and relevant consumer news to an audience that cares about Wall Street but is also concerned about how it impacts their street.

We rely on Bloomberg for up-to-the minute business information at regular intervals, and they've never let us down. They're reliable, open to suggestions, and actually talk on air like human beings. Plus for weekends, their special features are outstanding.

At KNX, we're proud to be a Bloomberg affiliate. The reporting team consistently delivers engaging business and consumer stories tailored to our local audience. When we want a trusted voice on a national business story, we know Bloomberg has both information and talent ready to go. Michael Lysak and his team respond within moments whenever we have a question or concern, and go out of their way to help support our needs - which I know isn't easy when there are many affiliates to please.

It is a privilege to partner with a trusted and respected brand like Bloomberg. The quality of Bloomberg content is second to none – it's topical, informative and entertaining. Bloomberg talent is equally impressive – flexible, responsive and sharp.
