iHeartMedia names Larry Mendte the new, permanent host of the morning drive program on news/talk WOR, New York. “Mendte in the Morning” airs from 6:00 am to 10:00 am on 710 WOR, The Voice of New York. WOR program director Tom Cuddy says, “Since joining our team in 2023 as our news director and
morning drive news anchor, Larry has built a strong connection with our listeners, who have responded very positively to his time as our interim morning show host. His remarkable career, which includes an astounding 97 Emmy awards and stints at WABC Radio, Channel 7 Eyewitness News, WPIX/11 and ‘Access Hollywood,’ speaks for itself. With all of this experience, he’s the ideal choice to wake up the tri-state area.” Longtime New York radio news anchor Jacquelyn Karl will deliver updates on “Mendte in the Morning,” while Natalie Vacca will continue in her role as executive producer.
