After setting his alarm clock for 1 a.m. for all of those years, Kasell has finally decided to sleep in. Last month he hung up his microphone and retired from his newscaster responsibilities. A veteran broadcaster with a career spanning more than 50 years, Kasell became a part-time NPR newscaster in 1975, and joined the staff full-time in 1977. He did the first newscast of Morning Edition in 1979 and has been a fixture of the program ever since. To tens of thousands of NPR listeners, it was Kasell who broke the news of such gripping events as the fall of the Berlin Wall and the terrorist attacks of Sept 11, 2001. But we have good news for area Kasell fans. WUSF 89.7 listeners will still get the chance to hear Kasell’s soothing baritone voice every week. Kasell will carry on as the official judge and scorekeeper of NPR’s weekly news quiz, Wait Wait...Don’t Tell Me! aired on WUSF 89.7 every Saturday at 11 a.m. and on our HD channel, WUSF 89.72 at 1 p.m. Photo Credit: Antony Naglemann radio television WUSF 89.7 RADIO SCHEDULE JANUARY TV HIGHLIGHTS Monday through Friday Saturday continued Morning Edition Weekend Edition 8-10 a.m. with Carson Cooper 5-9 a.m. Car Talk 10-11 a.m. Classical Music Wait Wait...
