Why I Support WBHM: Karen Sweeney
“I love that I can turn WBHM on every morning. I hear the news talked about in a rational, thoughtful, logical, well-researched way. It’s just the opposite of click bate and fake news that we’re so inundated with now.”

“I support WBHM and I’d love for everyone to join me in that support and become part of the WBHM community.”
