The changes will take effect in mid-FEBRUARY.
“Since we embarked on our journey of two unique brands but one cohesive news organization, we have made tremendous strides increasing our coverage of the tri-state area and today's announcements continue that exciting trend,” said Brand Mgr. IVAN LEE. “LYNDA's knowledge of NEW YORK CITY is a perfect fit for the legendary 1010 WINS, while BRIGITTE and 'NEWSLINE' allows WCBS 880 to go beyond the headlines. Plus, SOPHIA's experience will make sure that we have focused coverage on one of the largest and most important parts of our listening area -- LONG ISLAND.”
