About DBC Inc.:
Dick Broadcasting was founded in 1952 when James A. Dick Sr, filed an application with the FCC for a Daytime AM Station in Knoxville, TN. The station went live in 1953, with a focus on Local Content and commitment to being involved in the community. He went as far as creating call letters to match that commitment, calling the station WIVK which stood for the Independent Voice of Knoxville.
In 2000, Dick Broadcasting Inc. sold 14 of the 16 radio stations it owned, keeping its flagships stations in the Greensboro/Winston Salem/High Point market, Rock 92 and 107.5 KZL.
In 2015, Dick Broadcasting launched a new digital division, naming it DBC Next. DBC Next is designed to help our clients with all of their digital needs, from websites to social media posts, mobile applications to SEO.
