Listeners expecting to hear the Time Warner Cable News simulcast on WUAM 900 recently heard Tony Bennett crooning instead.

The Adult Standards station WABY has replaced the newscast on the 900 AM dial. WABY also is still airing on 1160 AM.

Nikia Redhead, public relations manager for TWC News Albany, said the contract between the news station and the radio station owner, Empire Broadcasting Corp., ran out and the companies mutually agreed not to renew the deal.

Redhead said there are no plans to simulcast on radio and the station is offering the news on the TV channel and the TWC News app instead.

Neerav Patel, chief operating officer for Empire Broadcasting, confirmed that the station is no longer broadcasting news.

Patel said there would be changes soon to 900 AM and other Empire Broadcasting stations, but would not provide details.

Empire Broadcasting owns WUAM and three other stations, 101.3 FM, 1160 AM, and 1240 AM.
