ITHACA -- This week, we're heading more than half a century back in time, for another look into the extensive collection of longtime Ithaca broadcaster Rudy Paolangeli. Although Rudy may be best known for his long-standing connections with WHCU, this photo goes back even further.
UTICA -- When we asked local broadcasters for their reflections on the past decade as part of CNYRadio.com's 10th anniversary earlier this year, many said the "biggest" story of the decade was consolidation -- which usually means job cuts. But it's a refreshing sign of a recovery this week, as a television newsroom in Utica […]
SYRACUSE -- When areas south and east of Syracuse suffered extreme flooding caused by rainfall from Tropical Storm Lee this week, TV stations sent crews south to document the damage. At least one local reporter was well-prepared, walking through water a few feet deep to track down flooding victims and get the story.

ALBANY -- Not many people have the honor of saying they were the General Manager of two prominent radio stations before turning 30, especially in a top-75 market.

SELINSGROVE, PA -- It's another "where are they now" edtion of Picture of the Week, as former local radio programmer and personality Rick "RJ" Jordan checks in. Since last September, he's been working as PD for country station B98.3 (WWBE Mifflinburg), which has been trimulcasting on 92.3 WLGL and 100.5 WYGL-FM. This week, Jordan has […]
Updated 3/6/13 -- ITHACA -- While some sources (like Wikipedia) note that college radio "became commonplace in the 1960s," the folks at Ithaca College have the distinction of being ahead of the curve. Their campus radio station, WICB, has a history dating back to the late 1940s. A photo from the Ithaca College Library's website […]
SYRACUSE -- Rome native Kevin Torres is doing very well at his current job in Denver. But you don't have to take his word for it -- Torres was recently nominated for three Emmy Awards, and took one home when the Heartland Chapter of NATAS announced winners this past Saturday.

After spending the last 3 years working for the Central New York Business Journal (and voicing "Business Briefs from the Central New York Business Journal" for WSYR), Reinhardt will join the news team at Buffalo's WBEN this Monday. Earlier this week, […]
