WFDF, which brands itself as 910 AM Superstation, is a commercial AM radio
station licensed to Farmington Hills, Michigan, and serving Metro Detroit.
The station is owned and operated by Kevin Adell. It features local and
network talk shows, much of it aimed at the African-American community.

You knew I would chime in about this one. 

The owner of "910 AM Superstation" also owns WADL/38, which he is in the process of selling to the Nexstar borg. (Nexstar doesn't do radio, so someone else is buying 910.) 

The station itself has been running a locally programmed Black talk format since not long after it moved up from Findlay OH (!) some time ago. Though I think it started in metro Detroit as the market's Radio Disney station.

OBWNN: Radio Disney [a] (which I LOVED even though I'm decades older
than the target audience) was, of course, distributed by the Disney
Corporation, owner of NBC Blue Network, home of WNN!

[a] they're all ears!
