After almost five decades as a personality driven contemporary pop/rock music station, WPLJ/NEW YORK will be no longer as it transitions to K-LOVE, a Christian music station, later this SPRING.
“Like many of my colleagues, I had a lump in my throat the size of YONKERS when I heard that WPLJ, as we know it, would be disappearing,” said VP/Programming at WPLJ from 1990-2009 TOM CUDDY and currently the PD of iHeart Talk WOR-A/NEW YORK.
“Having had the privilege to work at WPLJ for 19 years, I felt compelled to bring together the talented people who make-up the station’s history, both on-air and behind the scenes, past and present,” said CUDDY. “So I’m putting together a reunion where we’ll lift a glass and share some fun stories among all of the gifted staffers who made ‘PLJ tick.”
The reunion will be held on TUESDAY, MAY 21st, 6-9p, at THE CUTTING ROOM, 44 East 32nd St, NYC.
To secure an invitation, CUDDY asks anyone who has worked at ‘PLJ over the past 48 years to send him an e-mail at FarewellWPLJ@gmail.com and to pass on details to any ‘PLJ colleagues they are still in touch with.
