Alyssa DiTomasso has departed WNGC morning radio. The Athens, Georgia station’s co-host joined a digital news platform.
What We Know: DiTomasso recently joined Cox Media Group’s WNGC in Athens for morning show duties. Previously, she spent three years at Audacy’s Star 94 (WSTR) Atlanta as a producer and on-air host. Before her Atlanta tenure, her career included roles at Beasley’s 1100 WWWE Atlanta and an internship with The Bert Show. Now she pursues video journalism and digital storytelling in her new venture.
What’s at Stake: WNGC’s morning show loses an established on-air talent mid-year. As a result, the format change affects listener connections and station branding. Furthermore, Adam Bomb’s unexplained absence from the website raises critical questions. Cox Media’s Athens market now faces unexpected audience retention challenges during the transition.
What Remains Unclear: No one yet knows the timeline for WNGC’s new morning show format. So far, management has not announced Adam Bomb‘s employment status or replacement plans. Additionally, the station has not disclosed details about programming direction during this transition. Listeners now await clear information on the revamped show’s structure and hosts.
What It Means: DiTomasso’s departure clearly reflects broader industry trends. Increasingly, radio on-air talent explores digital platforms for creative control. Meanwhile, traditional broadcast outlets struggle with talent retention in competitive markets.
