NYC Radio: News Anchor Noam Laden Returns To 77WABC


77 WABC has hired Noam Laden as News Director, host of the daily 5am WABC News Hour with Noam Laden, and top-of-the-hour news anchor during the Sid & Friends Morning Show. A veteran with 20 years of broadcast news experience, Laden is responsible for all WABC news content and distribution, on-air and online.

For Laden, this is a return to WABC Radio, where from 2003 to 2018 he held positions similar to his current roles, including News Director and news anchor during the Imus In the Morning show and co-host on the Geraldo Rivera show. Most recently, Laden was at WOR, where he was morning news anchor and contributor to the morning show.

“I’m very excited to join the new 77 WABC,” said Laden. “The station has a terrific lineup of hosts, and the ratings are soaring. It’s great to be part of a winning team with passionate owners. We’ve got lots of exciting plans for distribution of our news.”

Matt Meany, Program Director for 77 WABC, stated, “When we decided to expand our news, I knew the person who would help us accomplish that goal was Noam. I’m thrilled that he’s come to WABC to head up our News Department and to host our 5am News Hour.”

The WABC News Hour with Noam Laden is a conversational approach to stories of the day. Laden will dig in with facts on topics relevant to New Yorkers, while keeping an upbeat and relaxed tone that listeners respond to while getting ready to start their day.

“New Yorkers need to be in-the-know first thing in the morning and throughout their busy day,” said Chad Lopez, President of Red Apple Media and 77 WABC. “Our goal at WABC Radio is not only to deliver the news but to include all sides of the story.”
