WKRC (AM) is a radio station based in Cincinnati, Ohio that is owned by Clear Channel Communications and broadcasts at 550 kHz. Broadcasting under the branding of 55KRC, the station is a news/talk outlet featuring a local morning show and national hosts like Laura Ingraham, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Jim Cramer, Michael Savage, Mark Levin, and Coast to Coast AM.
