SYRACUSE — When you visit The Great New York State Fair later this summer (in just 36 days, to be exact), you’ll hear a pair of familiar voices on the public address speakers throughout the fairgrounds. Longtime 93Q (WNTQ) morning co-hosts Ted Long and Amy Robbins are the fair’s new announcers.

SYRACUSE — This week, we’ve got not one… not two… but four different Pictures of the Week. Syracuse radio stations were out in full force at a number of special events last weekend. It wouldn’t be fair to choose just one and make the others wait for another week or two, so we just decided to feature them all today. 
SYRACUSE — When CNYRadio.com marked its 10th anniversary last month, we asked many longtime local radio personalities and managers where they see radio headed in the next ten years. Near the end of that article, we had a quote from 93Q (WNTQ) morning host Ted Long, who suggested we “feature more ‘Picture Of The Week’ flashbacks to when I was thin and had hair.” Well, as the saying goes: ask and you shall receive! 
SYRACUSE — From the “better late than never” file, we’ve just received confirmation that 93Q (WNTQ) personality Brandon C. is the Citadel CHR station’s permanent night host. After two years as a part-timer, Brandon tells CNYRadio.com he accepted an offer to take the shift full-time in December. 
Updated 11:20am – ATLANTA — After three weeks of “exclusive merger negotiations” between Citadel and Cumulus, the latter (and larger) of the two companies announced this morning that the deal is done. Cumulus Media will acquire Citadel Broadcasting, the owner of 225 stations, including four in Syracuse. 
CENTRAL NEW YORK — If you’ve been away for awhile, CNYRadio.com is celebrating it’s 10th anniversary this week. The site went live on March 1, 2001… and we’ve been running a series of special articles this week to mark the occasion. Today, we finish up the series with our reflections and yours, on ten years of CNYRadio.com.
CENTRAL NEW YORK — All this week we’re celebrating the 10th anniversary of CNYRadio.com with a series of special reports. Yesterday, several folks who’ve been in local radio for 10+ years explained why they feel consolidation was “the” biggest story from the past decade. Despite the negative side of consolidation, most radio pros are optimistic for what’s ahead. Today, we share their predictions for the next ten years.
CNYRadio.com launched ten years ago — March 1, 2001. To mark the anniversary, we reached out to dozens of local radio personalities and managers. We sent out a series of questions, figuring it would be interesting to see which ones get responses. And one question certainly did — when we asked people to name THE biggest story from radio over the past decade, one common theme was mentioned: consolidation.
SYRACUSE — It was March 1, 2001 — exactly ten years ago today — that CNYRadio.com was born. Today, we begin a series of articles to mark the occasion. To get things started, we thought it would be fun to follow-up on the site’s very first story from a decade ago: internet rumors that 93Q’s Rick Roberts was dating Britney Spears. Obviously the rumors weren’t true — but to this day, parts of the story remain a mystery to Roberts and his co-workers.
LAS VEGAS, NV — Citadel Broadcasting, the owner of four Syracuse market radio stations, announced Thursday that it is holding “exclusive negotiations for a potential merger with Cumulus Media Inc.” Cumulus, the second-largest radio operator in the nation, confirmed the news today. |
