Orange County-based Sunrise Broadcasting began carrying ESPN
Radio on its WGNY 1220 AM station Monday, filling a void that had existed in the
Hudson Valley for almost a decade.
“There was no full-time sports station. The closest was in
New York City,” market manager Bob DeFelice told the Poughkeepsie
Journal, referring to the likes of the Big Apple’s WFAN (660 AM) and ESPN Radio
affiliate WEPN (98.7 FM); the latter rarely reaches Dutchess County. “Now you
can hear it loud and clear all the time. That’s why we brought it here.”
Currently available locally on FOX’s 1220 AM station, the
ESPN Radio content — everything from “Mike & Mike in the Morning” to “The
Herd with Colin Cowherd” — also will be available in Poughkeepsie on its 97.3 FM station by the
end of the week, DeFelice said.
