Imus Sidekick Gets New Gig

The radio personality will be joined by New York sportscaster Warner Wolf along with news reporters Babita Hariani and Scott Salotto.

Of the new show, McCord said, “We’re giving people a great place to land for a concise, but complete, update — everything they’ll need to know to decide whether it’s worth getting up. I’m expecting to be able to tell them that it is.”
