- EZ Rock
.
Telemedia was later acquired by
Standard Broadcasting in 2002, and Standard in turn was acquired byAstral Media in 2007. The branding has also been retained to date on four Telemedia stations that Standard sold toRogers Communications shortly after completing the 2002 takeover.The stations are generally programmed independently, although special
Canadian content versions of shows such as "Delilah" and the "John Tesh Radio Show " are heard across the network. Some stations in smaller markets may also share voice-tracked programming in weekend and overnight slots.Despite the pronunciation of the letter "Z" as "zed" in Canadian English, the name is pronounced "E-Zee Rock" (as in "Easy Rock"), not "E-Zed Rock".
