Major Cuts At I-Heart Of The Hudson Valley

According to Scott Fybush of Northeast Radio Watch there have been numerous layoffs at I-Heart of the Hudson Valley as well as across the country.
I wondered yesterday when looking for who was taking over Joe Daily morning show the was no air personalities listed at all. I-Heart has scrubbed them off all their stations. They plan on using more national programing . Annie in the Morning takes over slo in the morning slot.
Gone from Poughkeepsie newsman Cameron Hendricks. I believe he was the only local news person. Fill in & weekends came from Albany , I think.
Scott also reports Jaleel Williams ""J-Will" is out as afternoon host and PD at Kiss FM 96.1 and PD at Z93.
Also gone at 93.3 Tigman who was hired away from PDH a year and a half ago, and mid- day Voice Tracker Gary Cee who was let go from I-Hearts Sussex NJ group.
They really cleaned house. I believe that leaves nobody in Poughkeepsie for Z93 , big holes at Kiss and nobody local for news. I assume generic local news will from Albany.
I never understand why /how they call WKIP News Radio 1450 WKIP they had at best one person, rather that news -talk. Most of their programing is conservative talk , which has served them well.
