WEMJ (1490 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a News Talk Information format. Licensed to Laconia, New Hampshire, USA, the station is currently owned by Binnie Media and licensed to WBIN Media Co., Inc.

WEMJ, along with 16 other stations in northern New England formerly owned by Nassau Broadcasting Partners, was purchased at bankruptcy auction by WBIN Media Company, a company controlled by Bill Binnie, on May 22, 2012.

In March 2016, WEMJ began a simulcast on "WEMJ-FM" at 107.3 MHz (Actually W297BS) and updated their branding to reflect this new over-the-air listening option.
