After being dropped from Grace Broadcasting Services’ 93.1 WTJS West Alamo/Jackson TN in December 2021, the Conservative Talk “News Talk West Tennessee” brand has returned to the market.
Former WTJS morning host Dan Reaves and afternoon host George B Scott will now be heard on Crossroads Broadcasting’s 96.5 WBFG Parker’s Crossroads along with the “News Talk West Tennessee” branding. The station’s former ESPN Radio programming will remain in other dayparts. WBFG rimshots Jackson from the east.
Reaves was the center of a battle between Grace Broadcasting Services and Wireless Group after he announced his departure from Wireless Group’s 101.5 WNWS to join WTJS in May 2020. It was settled when Grace agreed to purchase WNWS later that year. He retained WTJS’ brand and digital platforms where he continued to broadcast his show following the station’s flip to Southern Gospel at the end of last year.
