WEMP 101.9 FM NEW IS FINALLY ALL-NEWS

Sara Lee Kessler is full-time at WEMP. She has been heard anchoring evenings this week, as well as providing medical and health reports.

Kessler worked for CBS in NYC for a short time in the 1970s and then moved over to WWOR-TV as an anchor and reporter where she stayed until the mid-1990s when she joined New Jersey Public TV as the medical and health correspondent.

She has won a several awards for her medical stories and documentaries. She stayed with New Jersey Network until the entire staff there was let go earlier this summer as that TV station went from being partly state supported to being run by WNET under a new lease arrangement. WNET is in the process of hiring a staff for a new nightly NJ news program to start next month, but it seems both Kessler and fellow NJN reporter Briana Vannozzi took better offers from Merlin.

Radio's a very easy thing to use; far easier than iPods. It just has to stop convincing people that iPods are better.

Who is "convincing people that iPods are better?" I don't see it, or believe it. They're two distinctly different devices for different applications, and I think most people understand that.

The problem radio is dealing with is that consumers see radio (including satellite radio) as something they listen to in the car. Not something that is portable. There hasn't been a new portable radio device since the Sony Walkman over 20 years ago, and an entire generation has grown up thinking portable music means an iPod.
