Brokered Days
In 1991 American Radio Associates bought the station and attempted to keep the Urban AC format. But they too had financial problems and sold the station to Douglas Broadcasting in 1992. At that point the station dropped its Urban AC format in favor of Gospel music mornings and late afternoons, ethnic brokered shows mid-days and nights, and Gospel music and teaching on Sundays.
In 1995 Multicultural Media bought 1430 WNJR and shifted the station to include more Asian shows. They kept some Gospel music programming on Sundays. The station was then profitable.

Famous quotes containing the word days:
“A sturdy lad from New Hampshire or Vermont who in turn tries all the professions, who teams it, farms it, peddles, keeps a school, preaches, edits a newspaper, goes to Congress, buys a township, and so forth, in successive years, and always like a cat falls on his feet, is worth a hundred of these city dolls. He walks abreast with his days and feels no shame in not “studying a profession,” for he does not postpone his life, but lives already.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
