History
Jim Clark's Pro-Media Inc. owned WFMO and WSTS when WFMO became part of the "WE-DO" black gospel and news and information network started by Wes Cookman's WIDU in Fayetteville, along with WAGR and WEWO.[1]
WFMO and WSTS were sold by Davidson Media Group to Truth Broadcasting effective April 14, 2015, at a price of $475,000.[2]
Effective April 12, 2017, WFMO airs similar programming to sister stations WPOL and WKEW which consists of Erica Campbell, Willie Moore Jr, as well as other urban gospel programming.
gollark: If you require everyone/a majority to say "yes, let us make the thing" publicly, then you probably won't get any of the thing - if you say "yes, let us make the thing" then someone will probably go "wow, you are a bad/shameful person for supporting the thing".
gollark: Say most/many people like a thing, but the unfathomable mechanisms of culture™ have decided that it's bad/shameful/whatever. In our society, as long as it isn't something which a plurality of people *really* dislike, you can probably get it anyway since you don't need everyone's buy-in. And over time the thing might become more widely accepted by unfathomable mechanisms of culture™.
gollark: I also think that if you decide what to produce via social things instead of the current financial mechanisms, you would probably have less innovation (if you have a cool new thing™, you have to convince a lot of people it's a good idea, rather than just convincing a few specialized people that it's good enough to get some investment) and could get stuck in weird signalling loops.
gollark: So it's possible to be somewhat insulated from whatever bizarre trends are sweeping things.
gollark: In a capitalistic system, people don't have to like me as long as I can throw money at them, see.
