We’ve noticed a problem for users of Amazon devices for listening to WWER. Saying “Play WWER” has suddenly stopped working (as of Tuesday morning). We have brought this to their attention and hope they will resolve the issue. In the meantime, we have determined that saying “Play WWER FM” will work correctly. So if you’re […]
