WTSK (790 AM, "Praise 93.3") is a commercial radio station licensed to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, United States, airing an urban gospel format.[2] It is owned by Townsquare Media with studios on Skyland Boulevard in Tuscaloosa.
WTSK is also heard over low-power FM translator W227DD at 93.3 MHz in Brent.
History
The station signed on the air in February 1958 as WTUG. In 1980, the call letters changed to WTSK. They were chosen to represent the City of Tuscaloosa.
In February 2005, Apex Broadcasting Inc. (Houston L. Pearce, chairman) reached an agreement to sell WTSK and six other radio stations in Alabama to Citadel Broadcasting (Farid Suleman, chairman/CEO) for a reported sale price of $29 million.[3] Citadel merged with Cumulus Media on September 16, 2011.[4] Citadel and Cumulus owned the station for seven years.
Cumulus sold WTSK, along with its sister stations, to Townsquare Media. The transaction took effect on July 31, 2012.
WTSK provides regular weather coverage from ABC 33/40 (WBMA-LD). The chief meteorologist is James Spann. Additionally, under the ownership of Townsquare Media and the direction of Market President/Chief Revenue Officer David R. Dubose, WTSK also provides news coverage with ABC 33/40 News Director Don Hartley and traffic coverage with Traffic Reporter Capt'n Ray.
