There are many Pro FM Radio stations in a number of different countries, and there does not appear to be a single headquarters for Pro FM itself as it is a type of radio service. One of the most popular US Pro FM stations is 92 ProFM, which is located in East Providence, Rhode Island at 1502 Wompanoag Trail.
Some US radio stations refused to play "The Ballad of John and Yoko" because John used the word "Christ" as an expletive in the song. Other stations would play the record, but only after "bleeping" the word every time John sang it.
You did not tell us where WRWD is located; looking it up, I found a country music radio station with those call letters. Most radio stations these days do not have a consumer reporter, although many do have a news director and they broadcast local newscasts. It is generally on one of the local television stations where you are most likely to find a consumer reporter.

The first radio station was NOT Pittsburgh's KDKA, although it was certainly an important early station. Commercial radio began in 1920, and probably 8MK (later known as WWJ) in Detroit was the first, going on the air in August of 1920, while KDKA went on the air in late October. Early radio did not have commercial advertising. Most stations were only on the air a couple of hours a night in those early days. In the first year of radio, there were perhaps ten stations. But by 1922, the radio craze was exploding all over the US, as several hundred stations went on the air. Commercial advertising didn't become common till the mid-1920s. Some stations aired news reports as early as 1921-1922. Most radio broadcasts in the 1920s featured live performers, as tape had not yet been invented. Some stations played phonograph records, but most used live and local talent. The first national radio network was NBC (National Broadcasting Company), which began in late 1926.
