Calling NEW JERSEY 101.5 . a “Trenton” station is like…SiriusXM calling Howard Stern “our morning man”. . Anne Gress the PD of NEW JERSEY 101.5 has generated over 1,000,000 cume and the station grosses more revenue than almost all stations in Philadelphia. It beats WABC in the NYC Metro in the demo. It’s quite something. Great awards, congratulations.
