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. 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. ==References== ==External links== Official website
