WVRC Media

About

WVRC Media was founded in 1940 when Agnes and Herbert Greer placed WAJR-AM on the air in Morgantown, West Virginia. The call letters were the maiden initials of Mrs. Greer (Agnes Jane Reeves).

In 1948 WAJR-FM was put on the air as the first FM station in WV and one of the first commercial FM stations licensed in the US. The call letters were changed to WVAQ in 1981.

Upon Mrs. Greer's death in 1972, company ownership passed on to her three grandsons: Richard, John and David Raese.

In 1985 the firm began the MetroNews Radio Network – a statewide news, information and sports network distributed via satellite. MetroNews has grown to more than 50 news affiliates – and owns exclusive radio and TV rights to the West Virginia SSAC State High School championships in basketball, football & baseball.

In total, WVRC Media operates and/or controls a total of 30 radio stations – based in six physical locations. WVRC Media Corporate headquarters are located at 260 Spruce Street in Morgantown.
