Today
KGO is an all-news station on weekdays with the exception of the Ronn Owens show. Owens has a "personal services contract" with the station until the end of 2012 and hosts a news discussion program. Weekends feature a Saturday morning news block and talk programming, albeit with the station's signature traffic and weather on the 5's. In addition, KGO carries forecasts and news stories from KGO-TV, despite KGO-TV's ownership by the American Broadcasting Company.

Famous quotes containing the word today:
“Not too many years ago, a child’s experience was limited by how far he or she could ride a bicycle or by the physical boundaries that parents set. Today ... the real boundaries of a child’s life are set more by the number of available cable channels and videotapes, by the simulated reality of videogames, by the number of megabytes of memory in the home computer. Now kids can go anywhere, as long as they stay inside the electronic bubble.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
“Working women today are trying to achieve in the work world what men have achieved all along—but men have always had the help of a woman at home who took care of all the other details of living! Today the working woman is also that woman at home, and without support services in the workplace and a respect for the work women do within and outside the home, the attempt to do both is taking its toll—on women, on men, and on our children.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“In the mountains of truth you will never climb in vain: either you will already get further up today or you will exercise your strength so that you can climb higher tomorrow.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
