Audacy making big changes at all Top 40?

Buffalo is not part of the same region as Minnesota.

CORRECT. However, the region James has responsibility over includes Buffalo.

Per AllAccess, here's how the lineups at Audacy's 2 WNY Top 40 stations looks:

WKSE: Janet and Nick remain from 6-10am, then it's Julia Lepidi from 10am-3pm and Josh Brubaker from 3-7pm. Natasha Castles(who's at another Audacy station, Phoenix's KALV(Live 101.5))does 7pm-midnight(Eastern). (Castles is also VT'ing nights
at Greenboro, NC's WFBC(B 95.7).)

WPXY: Team PXY continues with wakeup duty. Julia does middays. Chris Debbins handles 3-8pm, while Bru has 8pm-midnight.

They also add that there are UNCONFIRMED rumors that Hot AC is the next format to get the "hub and spoke" treatment-which would affect WTSS(Star 102.5).

Very often radio personalities move into management positions in radio. Sue O'Neill left WCBS-FM several years ago, and nobody knows what became of her. Sue or Susan O'Neal is a relatively common name, so I'll take Rusty's word that a different Sue is an executive with Audacy.

Sue O'Neil of Audacy/Buffalo has been with the station(s) since 1994 or 1995. I believe she was in a medium Ohio market before that.
