Scale indicators1 record

Direct peers

Broad incumbents

• iHeartMedia Manchester: iHeartMedia operates multiple stations in the Manchester/NH market as part of a national broadcast portfolio, directly competing for local ad dollars and listener attention with broader format reach and scale advantages.
• Cumulus Media New Hampshire: Cumulus Media runs news/talk and music stations across New Hampshire including the Manchester DMA. National incumbent with overlapping ad-sales competition and similar talk-radio inventory.
• Salem Media Group: National owner of conservative talk and Christian radio stations; a direct ideological and format peer that also syndicates many of the same hosts (e.g., Salem-related network content). Comparable in audience targeting and political ad model.
• Audacy (formerly CBS Radio / Entercom): National broadcaster operating news/talk stations across major markets including Boston-adjacent DMAs that overlap with southern New Hampshire. Major incumbent competitor for both listeners and regional/national ad budgets.
