Contest Rules on WJAG NewsTalk 780
1. Almost without exception no purchase is
necessary to enter a contest on WJAG AM.
2. Eligibility for prizes on WJAG AM requires that you not have won anything on
WJAG AM in the past 30 days, or won any prize whose value is $600.00 or more in the
past year. Some WJAG AM contests may have specific rules that may amend this
eligibility requirement. These rules will be regularly aired on WJAG during
contest periods. Only one winner per household is permitted within 30 days after
a prize has been won. Prizes will be retained for winners for 30 days after the
winning day. Prizes not claimed in that 30 day period will be returned to
inventory for another contest. Any prize awarded to an ineligible listener will
be deemed null and void, and an alternate eligible winner may be named.
3. Listeners calling the WJAG AM studio after an on-air announcement of a contest
will assume that your call will be broadcast or recorded for later playback. As
a winner of a WJAG AM contest, your voice, name and/or picture may be used for
promotional purposes on airwaves, in promotional print pieces or for our
Internet websites at www.wjag.com or www.kexl.com.
4. Prizes awarded are not redeemable for cash and are nontransferable. No
substitution for a prize will be made at the request of a winner; however, WJAG
AM reserves the right to substitute a prize of similar value.
5. Contest winners are responsible for all taxes on prizes awarded. Winners of a
prize valued at $600.00 or more will be required to complete an IRS Form 1099 at
the WJAG AM studio prior to claiming the prize. Likewise, all winners will be
sent a 1099 MISC federal tax form if their individual aggregate winnings exceeds
$600 in a given calendar year.
6. Any contest winner subject to, or the subject of any order or legal process
issued by any governmental agency having jurisdiction over the affairs of the
winner (i.e.; garnishment, child support order, judgment, lien, etc.), WJAG AM's
delivery of the prize to the official representative of the governmental entity
claiming a right to the prize shall be deemed the same as WJAG AM awarding the
prize to the winner. WJAG AM shall be entitled to rely in good faith, upon any
legal identification of said representative or agent seeking to collect the
prize. WJAG AM shall not be liable for any falsified claims by claimant or
associated damages.

unless otherwise specified. Furthermore, contestants must possess a valid form
of identification bearing the picture of the contestant and presented to WJAG AM
before the prize is awarded.

Braasch Ave., Norfolk, NE during regular business hours from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Monday through Friday, excluding holidays, within the aforementioned 30 days
