History

After Messa Corp. bought the stations from Southeastern Broadcasting Corp. in July 1992, WJSK and WAGR ended their tradition of airing only Lumberton high school football and began carrying games involving other Robeson County games[1]

In 1993, Arthur DeBerry and Associates of Durham bought WAGR and WJSK[2].
