What is a Virtual Radio Newsroom?
A virtual radio newsroom is an outsourced newsroom that produces fully written, voiced, and produced local newscasts for your radio station — delivered remotely, on your schedule, branded to your station. Instead of recruiting, training, and carrying full-time news staff, you partner with a team of experienced broadcasters who function as your newsroom from anywhere in the country.
Virtual News Center has operated as a white-label radio station content service since 2005, covering small-market FMs, mid-market clusters, and regional networks. Newscasts are tailored to each market — the local stories, weather, sports, agriculture, and community updates your listeners expect — and integrate cleanly with any automation system.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Virtual News Center?
Virtual News Center is an outsourced radio newsroom that provides locally branded news, weather, traffic, sports, agriculture, and business reports for radio stations of all sizes across the United States. Operating since 2005, we deliver fully produced newscasts that match each station’s market, format, and brand — without the overhead of in-house staff.
How can a radio station add local news without hiring staff?
Outsource your newsroom to Virtual News Center. We function as your virtual newsroom — our anchors write and voice custom local newscasts that air on your station, so you keep local relevance without recruiting, training, or carrying a full-time newsroom on payroll.
How does Virtual News Center deliver newscasts to a station?
We produce newscasts remotely and deliver them via FTP or web download in WAV or MP3 format, named and timed to drop into any radio automation system. No special hardware, no studio required on your end.
Do you offer weather, traffic, sports, and ag reports?
Yes. In addition to local news, we provide local weather (in partnership with The Storm Report), traffic, sports, agriculture, business, and public-affairs reports — each tailored to your market and audience.
Is Virtual News Center customizable by market?
Yes. Every newscast is tailored to the station’s local market, format, and audience. Reports cover local stories, weather, sports, and community updates relevant to your listeners.
How much does an outsourced radio newsroom cost compared to hiring staff?
Full-service Virtual Newsroom pricing per daypart is generally about half the base salary of a full-time, experienced news person — and the savings compound when you factor in benefits, vacation, and sick days. Headline, One+Us, and barter arrangements can reduce cost further. See our Value page for details.
Can Virtual News Center match my station’s branding?
Yes. All newscasts are fully white-labeled to your station — matching your sound, positioning, and imaging. Multi-station branding is available for clusters and groups.
