I listen to a local Austin news station in the morning when getting ready for work, and often hear these sorts of announcements, often repeated too. I suspect that the online stream is different from what the regular listener to the radio is hearing. I often hear the announcements start at the 55 minute mark and they continue for about 10 minutes, preimpting the hourly news from the network. I find this very annoying since there are times I want to hear the national news, but I don't think there's anything I can do. Sometimes the stream will be several minutes behind what the radio is airring, and the only way to solve this is to stop the stream, wait a few seconds, and then start it again. This is another annoying thing with listening to TuneIn, but it may not be exclusive to this app though.
