(mostly during live sporting events with restricted contracts), 1270 used a different set of station IDs. End of simulcast WXYT AM and FM concluded their simulcast on September 12, 2011, with the 1270 facility reverting to a talk radio format and its former "Talk Radio 1270 WXYT" branding. Charlie Langton hosted a live, local morning show. Doc Thompson (formerly of WMJI in Cleveland, WLW in Cincinnati and WRVA in Richmond) hosted a local afternoon show. Syndicated hosts included Glenn Beck, Laura Ingraham, Todd Schnitt, Rusty Humphries and Coast to Coast AM with George Noory. The station also had frequent preemptions of talk shows to air college and professional games, as well as overflow from WXYT-FM. Sometime in 2012, all CBS-owned radio stations in Detroit moved their operations to the former Panasonic building in Southfield. On January 2, 2013, the station returned to sports talk with network programming from CBS Sports Radio. On February 2, 2017, CBS Radio announced it would merge with Entercom. The merger was approved on November 9, 2017, and was consummated on the 17th. On June 21, 2021, WXYT began integrating sports gambling programming into its line-up and rebranded as "The Bet Detroit." It added programming from the co-owned BetQL Network, with CBS Sports Radio shows remaining in late nights, early mornings and weekend hours. See also Media in Detroit References Sources Alan, Lee.
