by

WARLPhotoOver the past few month WARL has built a broadcast team that is the envy of the area. Throughout the day you can hear the lastest news, traffic, weather, sports and entertainment. Why listen to any other station?

To learn more about our broadcast team here are some short bios:

Domenic Cotoia
My background in Radio Broadcasting starts as I attended the former Rhode Island Junior College, now C.C.R.I. in Warwick, R.I. as an on-air disc jockey at their “on campus” radio station for four years, and being appointed station manager in my Junior year. While a Junior, I also attended the former Rhode Island School of Broadcasting. After graduation, interned at a few local radio stations helping out in radio sales & commercials, including WLKW. Eventually got hired at a Fall River station (WSAR) to oversee satellite music programs, and within six months later, got a call from the Program Director of Attleboro’s hometown radio station (then-WARA) where I was hired to work on-air playing oldies on weekends and within just a few months, was promoted to their afternoon disc jockey, Production & music director!
