KROC (1340 kHz) is an American news/talk AM radio station located in Rochester, Minnesota. The station was organized in 1934 by Gregory Gentling as the Southern Minnesota Broadcasting Company. The station went on the air on September 30, 1935. Gentling's other accomplishments included co-founding the Wm McCoy American Legion Post in 1919, originated Soldier's Field Park in 1926, co-owned The Rochester Daily Bulletin, helped arrange the 1934 visit to Rochester by President Franklin D Roosevelt, and managed several political campaigns during the 1920s, including Allen Furlow for Congress, and Arthur E. Nelson for Senate. KROC broadcasts many nationally syndicated talk shows as well as several shows with local personalities.

On August 30, 2013, a deal was announced in which Townsquare Media would acquire 53 stations from Cumulus Media, including KROC, for $238 million. The deal is part of Cumulus' acquisition of Dial Global; Townsquare and Dial Global are both controlled by Oaktree Capital Management.[2][3] The sale to Townsquare was completed on November 14, 2013.[4]
