[edit] History
For many years, WISE was a Top 40 radio station. In the 1980s, the station switched to adult standards, with most of the music coming from Stardust, an ABC Radio satellite format.[citation needed]
Early in 2002, Asheville Radio Partners, part of American Media Services LLC in Charleston, South Carolina, bought WISE and WOXL-FM, along with the stations' building on Lookout Road. Hal Green was general manager, as well as WOXL's operations manager.[2]
WISE gradually began adding talk shows in the early-2000s, eventually switching to talk radio full time, and finally sports talk.[3]
