WVOS-AM which celebrated its 75th Anniversary last year, will be broadcasting again as the Voice of Sullivan and the Catskills. The station will become the new home of the legacy morning show, Ciliberto & Friends starring popular Radio Personality Paul Ciliberto, which will form the backbone of the station?s programming; along with greatly expanded local news provided by legendary News Director Mike Sakell.
?Taking a legacy AM Radio Station, and re-imagining it into an additional radio format in a local market is an exciting expansion of Bold Gold?s local broadcast portfolio, and is a testament to an incredible team of local broadcast professionals, a supportive community, and the importance that local radio continues to have to provide local news, talk and information.? – Dawn Ciorciari, General Manager, Bold Gold Media NY
