WETR (760 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Knoxville, Tennessee. It airs a talk radio format and is owned by Thomas Moffit, Jr. The studios are on East Magnolia Avenue in Knoxville.
By day, WETR is powered at 2,400 watts non-directional.[1] But because 760 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WJR Detroit, WETR's AM transmitter operates during the daytime hours only. Programming is heard around the clock on WETR's FM translator W222BA at 92.3 MHz in Karns, Tennessee, operating with a smaller coverage area.
As “Knoxville’s Talk You Can Trust,” WETR airs a line-up of nationally syndicated shows. Weekdays begin with This Morning, America's First News with Gordon Deal. That's followed by The Glenn Beck Program, Markley Van Camp & Robbins, The Eric Metaxas Show, The Michael Knowles Show, The Joe Pags Show, No Spin News with Bill O'Reilly, The Dennis Prager Show and Coast to Coast AM with George Noory.
Weekends feature shows on health, money, religion, guns, the law, real estate and home repair. Weekend hosts include Bill Handel, Charlie Kirk, Gary Sullivan, Erick Erickson, Dana Loesch and Dave Ramsey. Hourly news updates are provided by Fox News Radio.
The station signed on the air on . Its original call sign was WMEN. It was known as "The Spirit of 76" and was an affiliate of Morningstar Radio Network.
Later, WMEN was called "The Word." It had a Christian radio format and shared production facilities with WRJZ 620 AM, its sister station.[2]
WETR previously featured a local morning program called “Real News” with host Grant Henry and co-host Nick Crawford. Both left the station in 2019.
The wake-up show was re-branded as “Knoxville’s Morning News,” featuring hosts Daniel Herrera and Elaine Davis. The show was produced by Rachel “Roz” Adams. Local morning drive time programming ended on January 10, 2020, when the station switched to all nationally syndicated shows on weekdays and most of the weekend.
For the 2019 season, WETR was the flagship station for the Tennessee Smokies minor league baseball radio network.
