WFTG (1400 AM, "The Wolf") is a radio station broadcasting a classic country format. The station is licensed to London, Kentucky, United States. The station is currently owned by Forcht Broadcasting, Inc.[2] The station was formerly owned by Elmo Mills. The call letters have informally been interpreted as, "Where Fine Tobacco Grows" due to its location in the tobacco trading district of London.
