We can only speculate that Bruno simply didn't like what he was being offered or was asking for more than the company was willing to commit to. During contract negotiations with Greater Media, Bruno abruptly resigned. He had been co-hosting the 10 a.m to 12 p.m. weekday slot on the Fanatic (WPEN) with Harry Mayes. Mayes will continue to host the show, now with Nick Kaya who has been doing nights.
Here's the statement from Greater Media: "Tony Bruno has chosen to resign his position at 97.5 The Fanatic. We thank him for his contributions and wish him well." No word about the resignation on Bruno's Facebook or Twitter page as of Thursday night.
The 62-year-old Bruno is a Philadelphia native. He started out in radio at WCAU-AM. When they dumped their Talk format in 1991, Bruno moved to sports and got a gig with WIP, where he worked with Angelo Cataldi and Al Morganti in morning drive. He moved on to work for ESPN Radio, Fox Sports Radio, and Sporting News Radio.
