SIRIUS XM Radio has made WRN available to XM subscribers. WRN is broadcast on SIRIUS channel 140 and XM channel 135.

This is excellent news for WRN’s content partners as the merger between SIRIUS Satellite Radio and XM Satellite Radio brings the combined company, operating under the name SIRIUS XM Radio, to more than 19 million subscribers (based on subscriber numbers ending 4th Quarter 2008).

Tim Ashburner, WRN’s Board Chairman, said, “WRN has had a long association with SIRIUS and is absolutely delighted to make its programming available to XM subscribers across North America, bringing to listeners a unique perspective on the world’s news and offering different viewpoints from around the world.”

WRN will be re-modelling its North American service specifically for satellite radio by adding a wide variety of programming from the world’s news broadcasters.
