Z Twins
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Z Twins are a trio of radio stations serving the Puget Sound region, most notably the African-American communities of King and Pierce County, Washington. The stations are owned by Kris Bennett Broadcasting.
The stations were so named as, at the time, the company only owned two stations, KRIZ and KZIZ. After KYIZ signed on, however, the name stuck, despite now having three stations in the family.
The stations that make up the "Z Twins" are:
