died at the end of May 2013. Rush Limbaugh's daily syndicated program moved from KKSF to AM 960 (which was now using the KNEW call letters), and later returned to KSFO. ESPN Deportes On July 22, 2016, KKSF dropped its talk format and switched to Spanish-language sports using the ESPN Deportes Radio Network. Initially, the station was programmed by Deportes Media under a local marketing agreement (LMA). (Deportes Media had previously operated previous ESPN Deportes Radio affiliate 860 KTRB.) By November 2016, iHeartMedia resumed operating KKSF in-house, retaining ESPN Deportes programming for several more months. Progressive talk On June 11, 2018, KKSF switched to progressive talk, branded as "Real Talk 910." The progressive talk format had previously been heard on KNEW (960 AM) until that station switched to business news as an affiliate of Bloomberg Radio. KKSF's progressive talk programming on weekdays included Stephanie Miller, Thom Hartmann, Randi Rhodes, Rick Unger, and Clark Howard. Rev. Jesse Jackson also hosted a weekend show. For world and national news, the station picked up NBC News Radio, which is run by parent company iHeartMedia. Black Information Network On June 29, 2020, fifteen iHeart stations in markets with large African American populations, including KKSF, began stunting with African American speeches, interspersed with messages such as "Our Voices Will Be Heard" and "Our side of the story is about to be told," with a new format slated to launch on June 30. That day, KKSF, along with the other fourteen stations, became the launch stations for the Black Information Network, an African American-oriented all-news network. This change positioned the station in competition with Entercom (now Audacy)’s heritage all-news stations KCBS/KFRC-FM.
