Catsimatidis commented: “Juliet Huddy and Frank Morano will combine their decades of radio experience for the all-new ‘77 WABC Early News’ bringing the Tri-State area all they need-to-know to start their mornings right. Huddy and Morano are two well-respected radio powerhouses. We could not be more excited to put them together for a jam-packed hour of news, traffic, sports, businesses, and much more.”

Catsimatidis continued, “Curtis Sliwa needs no introduction. He is an outspoken advocate for the Tri-State area and its millions of residents. Curtis will keep bringing his one-of-a-kind perspective to our loyal listeners during the midday hours.”

Lopez added: “Juliet Huddy and Frank Morano are two of the finest in the business. Their broadcasts have earned a reputation for giving New Yorkers the news they need when they need it. Bringing them together on the airwaves is an asset to 77 WABC. The 77 WABC Early News will be a must-listen for New Yorkers, bringing two unmistakable personalities in one hour.

“We are excited for Curtis to continue his success in the 12 p.m. hour, telling it how he sees it, in a way that only Sliwa can,” continued Lopez.

“New Yorkers agree, no one does talk radio like our personalities,” stated LaBrozzi. “We are excited to bring this new dynamic to 77 WABC radio and for the continued success of our station and programs.”
