NYC Radio: Joan Hamburg OUT At WOR 710 AM

Joan Hamburg
CCM+E/NYC and longtime talk host Joan Hamburg have parted company.  A daily fixture on WOR fir 35+ years, Hamburg was moved to weekends-only this past January.

The 79-year-old Hamburg started her radio broadcasting in 1979 with small consumer (bargain shopping) segments on the long-running Rambling With Gambling morning show, eventually earning her own show. She grew up on Long Island and attended Barnard College before embarking on an advertising career.

Hamburg has been scribbed from the WOR website and reportedly potentital advertisers have been told her show is "no longer available".

Hamburg frequently broadcast from her favorite places instead of a studio -- Sardi's, the Hamptons, Canyon Ranch, The Villages, Florida.
