Carpilio named news director at WRNI

Kudos and congrats to longtime local broadcaster John Carpilio, who has been named news director at WRNI (1290 AM), succeeding Mark Degon, who is taking a similar job with WBUR-FM in Boston.

I've periodically encountered Carpilio, formerly a Providence bureau chief for Metro Networks, at news conferences over the years, and he seems like a consummate professional. While Degon will certainly be missed, Rhode Island's public radio station, bolstered by additional staff, is positioned to ramp up its news report -- and that's good news.
