Description

In May 1927, Charles Lindbergh proved solo transatlantic flight was possible. In October of that year, The Jazz Singer became the first feature-length motion picture talkie. Between these two groundbreaking events, a Wisconsin newspaper launched an effort that exhibited Lindbergh's pioneering spirit and bespoke The Jazz Singer's technological advances.

Newsradio 620 WTMJ began broadcasting on July 25, 1927, as a way to sell newspapers, its call letters originally signifying "The Milwaukee Journal." Today, it is a 50,000-watt news/talk/sports powerhouse, part of an independent sister company of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel and one of America's largest and most successful radio stations.

"Thanks to hundreds of employees throughout the years, WTMJ has become as much a part of Milwaukee's heritage as beer, brats, bubblers and stop-and-go lights," said Newsradio 620 WTMJ Senior Vice President - General Manager Jon Schweitzer. "All of us, past and present, have worked hard to earn the respect and trust of people throughout Southeastern Wisconsin. We are grateful for their support and loyalty."
