NYC Radio: Official! John Gambling Returns April 14

In a surprise move, John Gambling will return to New York radio as of April 14, reports the NY Daily News.

He will be heard from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. daily on Salem's WNYM 970 AM, The Answer station general manager and vice president Jerry Crowley said Wednesday.

Gambling left his longtime morning show at WOR 710 AM in December, saying he was ready to retire.

While he had called in to his friends at 970 since he left, it surprised many people in radio — including Crowley — that he would return full time.

"I think when he left WOR he really was done," said Crowley. "He was set to go.

"But listeners missed him. We had many callers who said they used to listen to him on WOR and they didn't know where to go now.

"So I begged and begged and it paid off."

    John is basically a good guy, but he has very distorted views about inner city education. He thinks everybody is rich like him and that all students are like those that attend the rich private school his sons did. All he needs to do is go out the back door of the 970 answer studio building formally WOR's studio where there are 2 city high schools to explore the difference.
