  • Best news source in the area!!!

    I can’t express in words how impressed I am with WHQRs’ growth in their news department. The addition of Ben Schachtman has taken this source of news to the highest levels of actual news and subjects of genuine interest. Kudos to the team that Ben has gathered in the last few years and kudos to WHQR for backing this growth. Big Fan!
