Radio Training Institute's October 2016 Advanced Radio class graduated on last night in front of friends and family in a ceremony held at Melbourne's 3AW.
For 25 years Peter Ford has been a contributor to some of Australia's biggest radio shows.
His current portfolio includes the country's top talk stations such as 3AW, 2GB, 6PR & 5AA.
These stations sit alongside a long list of smaller capital cities and regional stations. It also includes the Kyle and Jackie O Show as well as radio stations in New Zealand.
His career began as an office boy at 3UZ in Melbourne 35 years ago.
The media has dubbed him sports broadcasting's newest star, which I found odd because I knew Sam McClure's name so well over quite a few years and then it clicked.
I worked in the newsroom at FIVEaa and we would take 3AW content including Sam's footy wraps.
Sam is now part of SEN 1116 and with the AFL season kicking off next weekend radioinfo got in touch to find out what the transition from reporting to being part of a show has been like?
Things got nasty Monday night on the Macquarie Media Network's 2GB, 3AW and 4BC. Miranda Devine took the regular call from fellow conservative commentator Andrew Bolt to discuss political events of the day.
3AW Sports Today hosts Gerard Healy and Dwayne Russell are set to spread their wings into new audiences across Victoria and Tasmania after Crocmedia today announced program partnership agreements with Macquarie Media, ACE Radio, Grant Broadcasters,North East Broadcasters, Rich River Radio and Southern Cross Austereo, which will see the program broadcast on over 20 stations each weeknight from January 16, 2017.
