“I am Ronald Williams. I am an active supporter/listener of WBHM, and I have been for almost 40 years. What I appreciate the most about listening to WBHM is that the reporters and the people I hear on the radio seem to bring about an integrity that I can trust. It’s not what I would consider alternative facts.

“I appreciate the talk programs because you get more diversity from the people listening from all over the country. I used to really enjoy Diane Rehm at 9 o’clock. Now that program has been taken over by Joshua Johnson, and so I like his program.

“It is vitally important to the citizens of Birmingham and the municipalities in surrounding counties that we support that and keep this radio station on the air because of its broad range of topics and points of interest.”
