UTICA/ROME -- It would be prohibitively expensive for a radio station to bring hundreds of listeners to Key West, so Arjuna Broadcasting's 92.7 The Drive (WXUR) brought a little bit of Key West recently to Utica. WXUR's Jack Moran sent in a photo of the fun for our Picture of the Week.
SYRACUSE -- Before 93Q (WNTQ) and what is now The Score 1260 (WSKO) joined up with 95X (WAQX) and what is now 105.9 The Rebel (WXTL) in their present-day studios on James Street in Syracuse, 93Q and 1260 WNDR were located on Old Stone House Road in Jamesville.
UTICA -- Typical "small market" TV stations are often described as "revolving doors" in the TV news biz... many rookie reporters just want to build a good resume tape and move to a bigger market. WKTV, however, has long been an exception. Quite a few staffers have called WKTV home for years, even decades. Primary […]
UTICA -- After six weeks in a row of Pictures of the Week from Syracuse, we didn't want our friends in the Mohawk Valley to think we'd forgotten them. This week, a double-feature from two of Utica's newest television stations.
SYRACUSE -- Can you name all the Channel 3 (WSTM) news staffers in this photo from nearly 25 years ago? It's just one photo from an entire album of archived photos entitled "CNY Central History," posted online earlier this week.

Presant recently sent this photo he took on his last day working for the former "Light and Easy" […]
SYRACUSE -- Do you recognize the two broadcasters in this 1984 photo, taken inside 62-WHEN when it was located on Old Liverpool Road in Liverpool? As of last year, they're back in the same newsroom once again. One more clue: one of these people had a birthday yesterday.
SYRACUSE -- Weekdays on The Score 1260 (WSKO), it's Mike Lindsley on middays, followed by Brent Axe in the afternoon. But Mike was talking with a different Brent earlier this month at the Carrier Dome -- specifically, longtime network TV sportscaster Brent Musburger. And you'll find a couple other familiar faces in the background...
UTICA-ROME -- If you're a fan of either country music or the Fox TV series "Glee," you're familiar with the Toby Keith song "Red Solo Cup." So it's only appropriate for Bug Country 99.7 and 101.1's Dave Silvers and his wife Sandy to be holding a couple of the famous cups when they met the […]
