Longtime New York radio news anchor Jacquelyn Karl will deliver updates on "Mendte in the Morning," while Natalie Vacca, who is approaching 30 years at the station, will continue her role of Executive Producer.

"Since joining our team in 2023 as our News Director and morning drive news anchor, Larry has built a strong connection with our listeners, who have responded very positively to his time as our interim morning show host," said Tom Cuddy, Program Director for 710 WOR. "His remarkable career, which includes an astounding 97 Emmy awards and stints at WABC Radio, Channel 7 Eyewitness News, WPIX/11 and Access Hollywood, speaks for itself.
