SF's only locally owned station is openly gay

Chron radio writer Ben Fong-Torres points out in his Sunday column that San Francisco’s only locally owned radio station, KNGY (Energy 92.7), is also the only station in town that’s openly gay. While the station doesn’t crack the Top 30 list in overall ratings, owner Jeff Bayliss notes that KNGY is No. 1 with men 25-54 — beating KGO, KFOG and even Sports Talk KNBR. The station’s morning show (Fernando and Greg, pictured), has “been adopted by the gay community, but women, both straight and gay, are following these guys, too,” said Bayliss.
