THE RISE OF THE JIM REITH SHOW
Jim’s genius mind was formed at C.W Baker high school in Baldwinsville, graduating in 1976. Jim was clearly the head of his class even if the numbers don’t bear that out.
Jim went on to serve 5 years in the United States Navy, which provided Jim the opportunity to sample food from all over the world.
When Jim returned from the service, he attended Onondaga County Community College, graduating with honors from the renowned Radio and Television Program. While at OCC, the bigwigs at WSYR noticed the bright young star in their midst and snatched him up to be part of the best news room in Central New York. After 15 years of being lied to by politicians, dealing with criminals and the occasional pointless feature story as a reporter, Jim just couldn’t take it anymore.
And…on December 15, 1997...The juggernaut known as The Jim Reith Show was born, and Central New York has never been the same. Jim currently lives in Syracuse with his wife and two children. |
