WARREN - Incidents Wednesday and Thursday turned WANR-AM into an off-the-Air America affiliate.
The downtown radio station was unable to broadcast its regular programming for several hours both days.
Station manager Tim Continenza said a person known to management and one or more accomplices entered the studio on Courthouse Square after 9 a.m. Wednesday.
"We had a board operator (on duty) who, with permission, locked the building and left to run an errand," Continenza said. "When he returned, they were in control of the radio station...They posted signs that Beacon Broadcasting was under new management. They changed the locks and changed the programming."
The station switched its format earlier this month to programming primarily from Air America, a liberal/progressive syndicated talk radio network currently heard in 53 markets nationwide and on satellite and Internet radio.
