Its founding ownership, the Bluegrass Broadcasting Company, was led by former Kentucky governor and U.S. Senator A.B. Chandler. WVLK launched as a Mutual Broadcasting System affiliate during radio's golden era, carrying the network's news, drama, and comedy programming. Studios relocated to Lexington in 1951, first to the Lafayette Hotel and later to the Phoenix Hotel on Main Street.
