Lansing should be excited about Walt Sorg's move to "TalkLansing.net"

by Wes Thorp on January 29, 2010

Walt Sorg is a great asset to the Lansing area as a radio news personality for more than 40 years.  Most recently, he has been the host on AMLansing on WILS radio, where he has served as the eyes and ears of a community that has needed someone who could talk to and report about everybody.

Now he’s joining a new venture in the area, web-based radio, TalkLansing.net.  Right now, the only details I know are on this audio where he describes the new venture and his role in it.

Walt, has been a friend and colleague for most of his four decades in the area.  We worked together as reporters and when I was pressroom manager at the State Capitol.  He understands the role of news media and knows how to report both sides of a story.  He has a point of view, but he respects others.  And he has been able to navigate the winds of change in the myriad of transitions that local news media has been experiencing.

I will share more details of his change as I learn them.  I invite friends of Walt and others to leave comments.
