from WPTF Afternoon News

WKRP in Cincinnati is making a comeback, thanks to someone in North Carolina. For fans of the TV show, it is not returning, but the call letters "WKRP" are real and have been used by a Raleigh-based nonprofit for about a decade. The nonprofit has even honored one of the show's most iconic moments. Now, the owner of the call letters WKRP is selling them to a station in Cincinnati. D.P. McIntire is the Executive Director of Oak City Media. He joined Jeff Hamlin to discuss his purchase of WKRP and why he’s selling the call letters.
