Connoisseur Media sees a familiar face returning to the company as Connecticut talk radio host Lisa Wexler is returning to her program at news/talk WICC-AM the company announced in a press release obtained by Barrett News Media.
After her leave, Wexler returns to the airwaves to run for re-election for probate judge in Connecticut’s Westport-Weston District.
Wexler won the race with 72 percent of the vote. She ran this time as a Democrat after having previously won three elections as a Republican in the same district.
“We congratulate Lisa on her re-election as probate judge and are looking forward to having Lisa back on-air after this brief election hiatus. Our listening community has clearly missed her on WICC,” Connoisseur Media SVP Kristin Okesson says.
Connoisseur Media is also in the news this week as the company’s CEO, Jeff Warshaw, takes over as Chair at the Radio Advertising Bureau.
“I am proud to serve as the RAB Chair and further support the organization and the industry as we continue to advocate for radio,” Warshaw said about taking over the position.
