WZFG (1100AM, "The Flag") is a radio station serving theFargo-Moorhead market,licensed toDilworth, Minnesota.
WZFN was originally owned by Brantley Broadcast Associates based inAlabama. WZFN was sold to Scott Hennen's SMAHH Communications of Fargo in April, 2008.[2]
WZFG was grantedspecial temporary authority to remain at 50,000 watts 24 hours a day in order to expand coverage of the2009 Red River flood.[3]
In the September 8, 2010 issue ofThe Forum of Fargo-Moorhead, it was announced that Scott Hennen was removed as president and CEO of Great Plains Integrated Marketing, by theboard of directors, effective that day. Other local outlets reported that "effective immediately, he will no longer be an employee, and therefore no longer running day to day operations". Later in 2010, Hennen returned to AM1100 in an afternoon program, replacing his friendSean Hannity. This program lasted until the summer of 2011, when then-program director Bruce Kelly replaced the Hennen show with thesyndicatedEd Schultz show (Schultz, ironically, was Hennen's longtime local rival in the Fargo market before fronting a national show.) In March 2012, theRush Limbaugh program, which had run on AM1100 since it firstsigned on the air, moved to the new "101.9 Talk FM" (KRWK). KRWK returned to its previousrock format in September 2013; Limbaugh's program then returned to WZFG.[4]
In September 2014, Sean Hannity returned to the air on WZFG. Hannity had been off the air in eastern North Dakota since 2013.[5]
