WNJZ (90.3 FM) is aradio station licensed toCape May Court House, New Jersey. The station is owned by WHYY, Inc., and simulcasts thepublic radionews and talk programming ofWHYY-FM inPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania.
The station was formerly owned and operated by theNew Jersey Network. NJN's radio network began operation May 20, 1991, whenWNJT-FM in Trenton signed on. Eight other stations would be established over the following seventeen years.
On June 6, 2011, the New Jersey Public Broadcasting Authority agreed to sell five FM stations in southern New Jersey to WHYY. The transaction was announced byGovernorChris Christie, as part of his long-term goal to end State-subsidized public broadcasting. The five stations previously belonged toNew Jersey Network's statewide radio service.[2] WHYY assumed control of the stations through a management agreement on July 1, 2011, pendingFederal Communications Commission (FCC) approval for the acquisition; at that point, the stations began to carry the WHYY-FM schedule.[3]
