Almost 5 years after CIMX-FM Windsor, ON/Detroit, MI dropped the long-running 89X in favour of Pure Country, the station has brought back the iconic brand and format. It comes after the station ran jockless with promos between songs mostly in Spanish, and between after playing multiple Johnny Cash songs. But as of this morning at 8:08am Eastern Time, the long-running brand familiar to Detroit and Windsor radio listeners comes back after a near 5-year wait. The first song to be played on the revived "89X" brand was Stop by Jane’s Addiction, which was also the first song to be played when "89X" debuted in May 1991, and it was also the last song before the station flipped to country on November 19, 2020. During the time when the station aired a country format, it competed with CJWF-FM, as well as WYCD out of Detroit, and WWWW-FM out of Ann Arbor.

Over a month after Corus announced that it will shut down 5 Pay television channels citing "financial pressure within the company", WildBrain announced that it will do the same, shutting down all 4 linear TV channels in the coming months! The reason why? Because the company failed to negotiate a new carriage agreement with Rogers for the 3 channels. As a result, WildBrain’s previously announced transaction to sell a majority stake in the Channels to IoM Media Ventures will no longer proceed.   In light of these events in combination with the previously announced decision by Bell to also remove the Channels, WildBrain has assessed that the Channels are no longer commercially viable and intends to cease broadcast after their removal from Rogers and surrender the Channel licenses to the CRTC. Following this, WildBrain will no longer be subject to applicable Canadian control restrictions under the Broadcasting Act and intends to remove its variable voting structure currently ...
