Columbia SC Radio: WOMG Drops NASH Icon For Classic Hits

Cumulus Media announces that its Columbia, SC, radio station WOMG 98.5 FM launched today as “Columbia’s Classic Hits 98.5 WOMG”.

The station kicked off its Classic Hits programming at 2PM EST today.

Popular on-air personality Benji Norton will join 98.5 WOMG as host of the “Breakfast With Benji” morning show, airing from 6-9AM EST weekdays, beginning Monday, July 11, 2016. Norton has anchored the morning show on Cumulus Media’s sports station WNKT 107. FM5 The Game for the past nine years.

Brent Johnson, WOMG Operations Manager, said: “From 1989 to 2014, the call letters WOMG have been synonymous with Classic Hit music. In 2016, we are so excited to bring WOMG back and play the music our listeners have been begging us to play. So many of these songs and artists have not been played in Columbia in years.”
