WOR/New York To Debut 'WOR Tonight With Joe Concha & Lis Wiehl'

Concha, Wiehl

iHEARTMEDIA News-Talk WOR-A/NEW YORK's replacement for its evening "THE SPORTS ZONE" is the new "WOR TONIGHT WITH JOE CONCHA & LIS WIEHL."  The new show, hosted by CONCHA, a reporter for THE HILL, and WIEHL, the attorney, author, and former FOX NEWS legal analyst, will air 6-9p (ET) weeknights starting FEBRUARY 4th.  The station dropped PETE MCCARTHY's sports talk show with the loss of NEW YORK METS baseball after last season to crosstown ENTERCOM News WCBS-A.

"The NEW YORK area is known for its diversity and 710 WOR will be able to offer listeners just that each night with a unique mix of issues,” said PD TOM CUDDY. “JOE and LIS come from different sides of the political spectrum, which should make things quite interesting and unpredictable."
 
“Our show will obviously talk politics, but we're also going to offer up the kind of news and views that people deal with every day,” said CONCHA. “We want to tell stories people can relate to as well as empathize with and hope to make you laugh a few times in the process."
 
“This show is going to be a one-stop shop in a three-hour package, delivered to your radio,” said WIEHL. “You'll get hard news shared by two people who are news veterans and experts in the fields of law and media. Plus, you'll get ‘water cooler’ news delivered to you by two hosts who are parents, taxpayers, pet owners and pop culture enthusiasts."
