WSTV (AM)
''This article is about the now silent WSTV, but is left for archival reasons.''
WSTV (1340 AM) was an American broadcast radio station licensed to Steubenville, Ohio, serving the Northern Ohio Valley. The station was owned and operated by Keymarket Communications and the broadcast license was held by Keymarket Licenses, LLC. Due to a dispute in regard to the land where the broadcast tower is located, the station was forced to go silent on December 5, 2011.
==History==
Signed on in 1940, WSTV was founded by Valley Broadcasting Company.〔 It later added sister stations WSTV-FM (103.5 FM, now WOGH) in 1947 and WSTV-TV (channel 9, now WTOV-TV) in 1953. When WSTV went on the air they were a part of the Mutual Broadcasting Network and a member of the Friendly Group, an alliance of four radio stations in Steubenville, Pittsburgh, Atlantic City, and Kingston, NY. In the spring of 1945 WSTV started the Steubenville Radio Forum moderated by A. Robert Anderson, then pastor of the 5th Street Methodist Church. On October 21, 1946 during that program Harry Cochran, Local News Editor, delivered an editorial that sparked the greatest transformation in the history of Steubenville. At the time crime in the city was rampant; corruption among elected officials was expected. Because of the officials’ corruption, unchecked crime, and open displays of vice, Steubenville had taken on the reputation and name of “Little Chicago.” Cochran decided that he had had enough and declared on air, "It's time for a rat extermination campaign in Steubenville." An association of 12 ministers agreed, banded together, and proceeded to stamp out prostitution, gambling, and official corruption. For their involvement in the effort, WSTV won a plaque and special recognition from Variety Magazine for displaying “responsibility to the community.” The role WSTV Radio played in the effort is mentioned in the book entitled "Twelve Against The Underworld." by Norman E. Nygaard.
In 1963, Jack Berkman merged his growing broadcasting companies with the Rust Craft Greeting Card Company to form Rust Craft Broadcasting.〔 This company would be folded into Berkman's The Associated Group as Associated Radio, Inc., in the 1970s. In June 1999, The Associated Group was acquired by Liberty Media for $3 billion.〔 Liberty Media was not interested in over-the-air broadcasting so WSTV and three sister stations were sold effective March 2000 to Keymarket Communications through its Keymarket Licenses subsudiary.〔
In its 71 years of broadcasting, WSTV aired a variety of music, information, and talk radio formats with a focus on the local community. WSTV's news team covered a number of historic moments, including the Attack on Pearl Harbor and the Assassination of John F. Kennedy.〔 At the time the station signed off the air, WSTV aired a sports talk format, airing the feed from ESPN Radio, simulcast with sister station WOMP.〔
