Following the 1991 season, WWWE ended its radio contract with the Cleveland Indians, with the flagship rights going to WKNR (1220 AM); WKNR had previously hired away "Sportsline" host Geoff Sindelar as a drive-time host earlier in 1991. WWWE hired Craig Carton as "Sportsline" host in April 1992, replacing Mike Snyder, who was promoted to sports director, a position he holds to this day; Carton left the station in May 1993. WWWE picked up "Imus in the Morning" for morning drive in September 1993 after Westwood One offered up the show for national syndication.
