“There’s no better place to be in the radio world than iHeartRadio,” said Mark Simone of iHeartMedia New York’s 710 WOR. “Thanks to the finest broadcasting executives around, Tom Cuddy, Thea Mitchem and Bernie Weiss for making it all happen. Walking to work every day is like walking through the Radio Hall of Fame. Just to get to my studio, I pass Elvis Duran, Jim Kerr, Charlamagne tha God, Angela Yee and other all-stars.”

“It’s no surprise that Mark holds the longevity record for NYC radio talk show hosts,” said Thea Mitchem, Executive VP of Programming/Program Director for iHeartMedia New York’s Power 105.1. “Mr. New York, Mark Simone, is in a class of his own.”

“When I joined WOR almost 11 years ago, Mark was my first hire,” said iHeartMedia New York’s 710 WOR Program Director, Tom Cuddy. “Since then, it’s been a blast watching Mark grow into becoming the highest rated radio talk host in his time slot, along with digital numbers that are among the highest in the country.”
