New hire at KD-AM

KDKA (1020) has hired Matt DelSignore from WGY (810) Schenectady to serve as an evening news reporter-anchor.

The addition comes as the station plans to restore local newscasts until 10 p.m. on weeknights, according to Marshall Adams, KDKA director of news-talk programming.

The station currently uses CBS News’ hourly reports in the evenings.

A graduate of Syracuse University and a native of upstate New York, DelSignore previously worked at WSYR in Syracuse and WTNY in Watertown, N.Y.

DelSignore will join the station later this month, Adams said.
