Gregg will host a new 30-minute program, Flashpoint, on KYW Newsradio as a forum for local and national influencers, as well as listeners, to share their points of view on the most relevant Philadelphia news stories of the week. The show airs Sunday mornings at 8:30 a.m. In addition to her work on KYW Newsradio, many of Gregg’s stories also appear on CBS3-TV. Most recently, she won the NABJ Salute to Excellence Award in Television Journalism for her special investigation of a Philadelphia man stopped numerous times by police.
“We’re excited about this new KYW venture, and in particular Cherri’s proven ability to stay connected to our community and get the right players to the table for these spirited and meaningful discussions,” said Steve Butler, Vice President of News for CBS Radio and KYW Newsradio’s Director of Programming.
The show is presented in three segments: the “Flashpoint Debate”, a Newsmaker interview, and a non-profit “Change Maker of the Week,” which highlights an individual or group making a difference in the community.
