Quoted Text

ALBANY -- Al Roney, a favorite among local Tea Party activists, will take over the afternoon drive-time show on WGDJ-1300 AM, the station announced this morning.
     
Roney, who built a following on WGY-810 AM but was released in favor of Glenn Beck's national radio show, will take over the 2-to-6 p.m. slot. Roney replaces Dan Lynch, an ex-Times Union managing editor and columnist, who had hosted the 3-to-6 p.m. block.

Roney's first show will be June 21.

Thank you, and here's another link (with excerpt):

"Al Roney Joins WGDJ

Paul Vandenburgh announced today that Al Roney has been hired to host the afternoon program beginning on Monday, June 21st. Roney will host the Monday thru Friday shift from 2 to 6pm each afternoon. He will broadcast from the WGDJ TALK 1300 studios located in the Times Union Center in Albany.

Roney is a market veteran who has covered the Capital District for over a decade. He is not only a well known talk show host but has also been an established newscaster and traffic reporter in the region. He most recently served as a talk show host and newscaster at WGY and before that was a newscaster at 590 WROW.

“Al brings a strong news talk background to TALK1300”, said WGDJ President and General Manager Paul Vandenburgh. “Al and I worked together in the past and to obtain someone of his talent and background is a major plus for us, our listeners and the Capital District.”  “He will be driving the agenda in the Capital District every afternoon on the ride home and will deliver a strong product.”

Roney will begin on Monday June 21st."
