[2] WTAG's weekday program schedule includes two local shows: Jim Polito and Jordan Levy.

Polito's program is regionally syndicated to WHYN in Springfield, WHJJ in Providence, Rhode Island, WXKS in Boston,[3] and WXTK on Cape Cod.

[4] WTAG also airs nationally syndicated talk shows from Premiere Networks, iHeartMedia's programming subsidiary: The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, Sean Hannity, America Now with Buck Sexton and Coast to Coast AM with George Noory; Glenn Beck Radio Program from TheBlaze Network is also aired.

WTAG's history began on May 1, 1924, when the C. T. Sherer Co., a Worcester department store, received the license for WDBH.

Ellis sold the newspapers and radio station in December 1925 to Harry Stoddard and George F. Booth (1960 recipient of the Yankee Quill Award).

The transmitter was a Western Electric IB and the antenna an inverted L. In July 1926 the wavelength was changed to 545.1 meters (550 kHz).

From 1927 until 1934 the station ran various power levels on 580 kHz, finally ending up with 500 watts from a T antenna at 20 Franklin Street, the T&G building.

[9] The station was the radio home of the Boston Red Sox in the Worcester area for forty years, from 1967 to 2006.

In 1987, after selling the Telegram & Gazette to the owners of the San Francisco Chronicle, the Stoddard and Booth families sold WTAG to the Knight Quality Group for $2.8 million.

[10] The sale put WTAG under the same ownership as WSRS;[11] that station had, as WTAG-FM, itself been sold by the Telegram & Gazette to Knight Quality in 1963.

[15] Capstar and Chancellor Media announced in August 1998 that they would merge (Hicks, Muse, Tate & Furst was a major shareholder in both companies);[16] upon the merger's completion in July 1999, the combined company was named AMFM Inc.[17] AMFM was in turn acquired by Clear Channel Communications (forerunner to iHeartMedia) in a deal announced on October 4, 1999,[18] and completed in August 2000.

[19] WTAG, which had rejoined CBS in 1993, ended its 14-year affiliation with the network and joined Fox News Radio in February 2007.

[20] In 1945, WTAG received the Alfred I. duPont Award "for outstanding public service in encouraging, promoting and developing American ideals of freedom, and for loyal, devoted service to the nation and to the community" and the Peabody Award "for outstanding contribution to the welfare of the community it serves".
