WABC Radio Holds Gala To Celebrate Cousin Brucie & 102 Yrs. Of Radio

It's a far cry from the days of its Top 40 glory, but WABC-AM is holding a gala on Thursday to celebrate Cousin Brucie's years in radio, including his current gig doing Saturday Night Oldies on his old station. The party will also mark an amazing 102 years on air. (Not for Brucie but the station! Although at 86, Bruce Morrow is getting closer!)

(I used to love 770 but not much anymore - as I post this, their current on-air host is Rudy Giuliani, one of those charged in the Trump indictments. And he still has his own show! Innocent until proven guilty, I suppose.)

Summer Nielsen #1 in ratings for News/Talk. Johnny Cats saved this station.  All the hosts built their audience with common sense talk.

No he didn’t. He’s subsidizing it to boost his ego and push an agenda. There’s a 0% chance it’s turning a profit.
