WKRC (AM) is a radio station based in Cincinnati, Ohio that is owned by Clear Channel Communications and broadcasts at 550 kHz. Broadcasting under the branding of 55KRC, the station is a news/talk outlet featuring a local morning show and national hosts like Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Neal Boortz, Michael Savage, Mark Levin, and Coast to Coast AM.

Despite the similarities in their call letters, WKRC was not the inspiration behind the television show "WKRP in Cincinnati". The show was inspired by show creator Hugh Wilson's experiences at WQXI in Atlanta.
