I often hear many tech errors and some hosts/newscasters do not seem major market quality to me. how many stations have picked up the syndicated Hamburg Show and Henican & White Show? I can't imagine the syndication will last long---- for these horrible shows! They make Bernard Meltzer and Barry Farber seem great! (Past WOR hosts for those too young to know!)
 
I've heard them off their flagship but never off the network. What stations use the WOR Radio Network? I've heard a few technical flubs in the past but figured it was the fact they moved to brand new digital studios and the folks were just getting to know the lay of the land.

Even their owned station in Syracuse, WFBL, isn't picking them up unless it is at night or overnight. I think they are running Joey Reynolds overnight.
 
Joey Reynolds of course also with WORRN. Buckley is pretty bad when it comes to carrying their own crap shows (Lionel is relatively decent). They have such little regard for 710 WOR that they just syndicate every show to nobody for the hell of increasing the content on their fifth-tier network.

Of course, Henican does/did do a show on TRN weekends. He now probably thinks he's actually a good talk show host. WOR's operation makes some brokered hole look like its high quality
 
Lionel gets pretty good clearances among progressive talk stations (in place of Mike Malloy or Alan Colmes).
Among some smaller market stations which lean to advice talk more than political talk, Dr Joy and the Dolans do OK.
IMHO: If it makes a noise like a duck, it must be Hoffmann. ::)
 
Dr. Joy does a better job at giving out advice than Dr. Laura.

Although neither one is my cup of water (sorry I don't drink tea), I'd rather listen to Joey Renyolds that Coast to Coast AM.

The Dolans are good. I just wish they were back on 5 days a week. (and 5 days a week on a station in or near my market - Hartford. Before when they were on 5 Days a week they were on WMRD Middletown/WLIS Old Saybrook).
