Use the four-letter callsign plus FM/AM/TV, followed by its location when referring to any broadcast television or radio station: Terry Glenn will not be available for Sunday’s game, coach Bill Parcells told WLVI-TV in Boston on Thursday; Tiki Barber drew criticism for his comments on WFAN-FM in New York.

The best method to find callsigns is to use Google; e.g. search “98.5 the sports hub boston callsign” to find WBZ-FM.

Use the common title when referring to cable networks or internet channels: Joel Embiid, speaking with NBC Sports Philadelphia, said his foot injury will sideline him for at least two more weeks.
