WFME is a radio station on 94.7 FM licensed to Newark, New Jersey. It is owned by Family Stations, a non-profit Christian organization based in Oakland, California. The studio, office and transmitter are located at 289 Mount Pleasant Avenue in West Orange, New Jersey and is shared with sister station WFME-TV (channel 66).

The 94.7 FM frequency signed on in 1947 as WAAT-FM, and was owned by the Bremer Broadcasting Company along with sister station WAAT (970 AM, now WNYM). The following year Bremer launched a television station, WATV on channel 13, New Jersey's first TV outlet. In 1958 the three stations were sold by Bremer to National Telefilm Associates, who changed the operation's call letters to WNTA-FM. During this period, the station had diversified programming such as jazz, classical music, and easy listening music.

National Telefilm split up its holdings in 1962, with WNTA-TV (now WNET) being sold to a New York City-based nonprofit educational group, and the WNTA radio stations going to Communications Industries Broadcasting. The new owners changed the calls to WJRZ-FM and initially retained the station's previous format, but in 1964 began leasing airtime to Family Radio. In 1965, the station was renamed to its current WFME, and on March 10, 1966, Family Radio bought 94.7 FM outright and began airing its religious programming around-the-clock.

In the present-day, WFME's local programming consists of community announcements; weekend public affairs; and news, weather and traffic inserts during Family Radio's Rise and Rejoice morning show. WFME originates a portion of the network's overnight program Nightwatch, hosted by station manager/chief engineer Charlie Menut. The rest of the station's schedule originates from Family Radio headquarters in Oakland.^[2]

On January 6, 2012, Family Stations applied to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to change the license of WFME from noncommercial to commercial. This move followed the sales by Family Radio of stations in the Philadelphia (WKDN, now WWIQ) and Washington-Baltimore (WFSI, now WLZL) markets, and quickly prompted conjecture from radio industry monitors that WFME would be sold next.^{[3] [4] [5]} The application was approved on February 7, 2012.^[6]

Those rumors were confirmed on October 16, 2012, when it was announced that Family Stations would sell WFME to Atlanta-based Cumulus Media for an undisclosed price.^[1] Upon FCC approval of the sale, 94.7 FM would become a sister station with Cumulus' two existing New York market stations, WABC (770 AM) and WPLJ (95.5 FM).

WFME's programming was also heard on two translator stations: W213AC (90.5 FM) in Hyde Park, New York; and W247AE (97.3 FM) in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. As a result of the license status change, the translators can no longer legally rebroadcast WFME's broadcast signal and as a result both translator stations are currently silent of February 2012.
