WATD is one of those seemingly impossible ideas which actually worked and has now endured for over three full decades.

Today, WATD is one of the most respected and honored stations in the state. For the past ten years, the Associated Press has given WATD the “Bay State Award” signifying the best local news operation in the state. We are one of the few radio stations ever to win five Edward R. Murrow Awards for national news excellence.

WATD is a full service regional radio station, the way some of the old line Boston stations used to be. We offer excellent local and regional news, unmatched live coverage of local breaking stories, live high school sports coverage and we even have our own weatherman based in Hull and an award winning locally produced children’s show. All of our announcers are “Boston Quality” and our music is oriented toward an adult audience.
