ITHACA -- After about a year of anchoring and reporting at Saga's News/Talk 870 WHCU, Todd Messer is getting ready to move on. The station has begun the search for his replacement.
Assistant PD Dave Vieser tells CNYRadio.com that Messer will be leaving "in late July, when he gets married and moves to New Jersey." And, as is the case in virtually any local radio newsroom these days, Vieser says Messer has been handling a variety of tasks.
"Todd has hosted the Evening Newswatch weeknights at 6PM, the Saturday Morning Newswatch, as well as anchor afternoon newscasts on all of the Cayuga Radio Group stations."
Update 6/23 at 9pm - Messer writes to "say thank you to the staff at WHCU for the great opportunity I had to work here." He also points out we misspelled his name originally, and for that we apologize.
Vieser submits the following information regarding the job opening:
