When WNIR became a talk station in the 1970s, it was unusual in that it is an FM talk station, whereas most talk stations were AM.
WNIR's weekday schedule consists of The Morning Show during morning drive time with Stan Piatt, Steve French, Maggie Fuller and Jim Midock, longtime personality Howie "The Real Deal" Chizek at midday, former NFL player Bob Golic in late afternoon, and Tom "Radioboy" Erickson evenings.
The call sign for the FM station was changed to WNIR on April 19, 1979, and it was called "Winner 100." Eventually, the AC music was dropped, and the station became all talk, adding Joe Finan in late afternoons in 1985 to replace a "GameRadio" afternoon drive show.

 WNIR decision creates a stir amongst older listeners.
Honestly in defense of the writer, who should take that as a compliment while the letter is comedic to me, it is well written.
But I wonder whether management at WNIR understands the concept of ``redeeming social value'' or respect for the religious community, regardless of faith.
WNIR Radio and The Tom Leykis Show do contribute something to the Akron community.

WNIR FM 100.1 is a talk station in Akron, Ohio, USA, licensed to Kent, Ohio.
However, WNIR has always operated as more of a traditional, AM-style talk radio station with hourly newscasts and an affiliation with ABC Radio (oddly enough, WNIR now serves as ABC Radio's main Cleveland affiliate).

 The Randi Rhodes Show
Finan was replaced on WNIR by former Cleveland Browns player Bob "Saved By The Bell: The College Years" Golic, brother of ESPN Radio morning host Mike Golic.
I suspect that's one big reason that he's coming out of retirement to do the WARF show...to "show up" Howie, who has been number one in that time slot for a long time.
He's easily into his early 70's, and his retirement from WNIR was not unexpected.

WNIR is actually out of Kent in Portage County, though they image themselves as an Akron station.
Their original transmitter site when they were limited to 3kw at 300' is on SR 59 just east of Brady Lake, which is where their studios are still located (along with their co-owned LPTV and WJMP AM studios).
I have always found their signal to be extremely annoying after just a few minutes of listening.

Users of the WNIR, including supporters of the Thomson Cardiff Devils; junior, women and sledge hockey players; figure skaters and recreational skaters will be demonstrating outside County Hall before the Council meeting which is due to start at 4.30pm.
It could even prove to be the new permanent WNIR depending on how the various developments in the City Centre, Leckwith and the Sports Village progress over the coming years.
However, concerns remain that any temporary solution may not meet the needs of all the users of the WNIR in terms of adequate facilities and in terms of accessibility, particularly for those who rely on public transport.

 Manchester Phoenix
The city of Cardiff was once again host to a public protest from ice hockey supporters this Wednesday as the Cardiff Devils took their plight directly to the Council following the unveiling of plans for building work on the site of the Wales National Ice Rink.
Home to the Devils since before the inception of the Superleague and the Elite League, the WNIR is to be torn down and redeveloped as a superstore when the lease runs out next year, leaving the Devils without a venue to play from.
The dispute arises from the lease that Mr Phillips signed on the WNIR, which was allegedly signed on the understanding that a new pemanent venue for the Devils would be made available once the WNIR contract expired.
