Gil Gross' show replaces Bob Brinker in NY

KGO-AM afternoon host Gil Gross (left) began moonlighting a few months ago as the host of a two-hour nationally syndicated weekend program about the real estate industry, which has just been picked up by WABC-AM in New York. In fact it airs on Saturdays from 4-6 p.m. Eastern, replacing longtime WABC financial host Bob Brinker (right). At the moment, Brinker doesn’t have a New York affiliate. No station in the San Francisco market has picked up Gross’s “Real Estate Today” program yet. However, KGO-AM president and gm Mickey Luckoff said on Ronn Owens’ show in May that the station’s owner, Citadel, required him to carry Brinker’s program. His comment was in response to a caller who disliked Brinker’s show, feeling it didn’t fit in with the rest of KGO’s lineup. Luckoff didn’t disagree. Maybe that policy has changed now that Brinker has been dumped by Citadel’s flagship station, WABC.
