Longtime New York news/talk radio host Joe Piscopo has inked an extension to remain with Salem Media Group and AM 970 The Answer.
With his extension, Piscopo will remain in morning drive from 6-10 AM on the Salem Media Group station. He has hosted on the station for the past decade.
“Joe Piscopo joining our lineup was one of the best things that could have happened to AM 970 The Answer,” said Salem Media Group New York Vice President and General Manager Jerry Crowley. “Joe is extremely talented on the radio bringing an engaging mix of entertainment and news every day. His connection with his audience is deeply rooted and watching his celebrity skyrocket over the last decade has been nothing short of amazing.”
“It is a distinct honor working with Mr. Crowley and Salem Media,” added Piscopo. “Broadcasting to the astute, aware, and patriotic audience that we have garnered over 10 years is a huge responsibility, and I am proud to continue speaking truthfully and honestly about the issues of the day with the best Morning Team in radio!”
Piscopo — in addition to his news/talk radio career — is widely known for his stint as a member on Saturday Night Live in the early 1980s.
