"If you're talking about it, we're talking about it!"That’s the motto of The Morningline, a vibrant and engaging talk show from 6-9 am weekdays on WLNI. Veteran hosts Mari White and Brian Weigand, along with producer Anthony “Biscuit” McAvoy, tackle current events, community issues and a wide array of timely topics. At a time when reliable local news sources are on the decline, The Morningline provides local, relevant information, expert interviews and listener interaction with a blend of insight and humor. Listeners hear not only local news but the discussion surrounding it.
