NYC Radio: Sliwa Still Balking At Child Support Increase

Curtis Sliwa
Guardian Angels founder Curtis Sliwa’s radio career has rebounded — but he’s still balking at increasing child support to his ex-wife, according to The NY Post.

“Mr. Sliwa is now back to his old salary of $400,000,” former spouse Mary Sliwa’s attorney Paul Siegert told a Manhattan Family Court judge on Tuesday.

The crime fighter turned radio personality returned to his old gig with former employer WABC 770 AM last month. The conservative Sliwa joins lefty attorney Ron Kuby from noon to 3 p.m. on weekdays.

WABC re-hired Sliwa as part of a plan to compete with rival WOR, which syndicates major radio talent like Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.

The reunion — Sliwa co-hosted a morning show with Kuby from 200 to 2007 — means a huge income bump for the father of three whose salary was slashed to $200,000 in Dec. 2012 after his then-employer Salem Communications suffered serious damage during Hurricane Sandy.

Following the pay cut Sliwa reduced the $13,000-a-month child support to his ex-wife Mary Sliwa for their son Anthony to $2,500.

Sliwa also pays his live-in girlfriend, Queens Borough President Melinda Katz, $5,000 a month for their two sons. Katz says she conceived the boys through in vitro fertilization using Sliwa’s frozen sperm.
