WFMP (107.1 MHz FM) is a women-oriented talk radio station known as "FM107.1" broadcasting to the Minneapolis-St. Paul region. The station was originially licensed to serve New Richmond, Wisconsin as WIXK-FM, simulcasting the country music format of that city's WIXK 1590 AM. Hubbard Broadcasting Corporation bought both stations in 2000 for $27 million, and moved WIXK-FM to the Twin Cities. The format and call sign finally changed in mid-2002. Today, WFMP is licensed to Coon Rapids, Minnesota and broadcasts from the Telefarm installation in Shoreview.
Much of the programming is locally produced.
In 2007, the station gained a measure of national exposure by heeding a call from condemned inmate Philip Workman to have vegetarian pizza delivered to homeless residents of Nashville, Tennessee.[1]
