Craig Carton was inducted into the NY STATE BROADCASTERS HALL OF FAME 2024 CLASS.

His 35 year career started in the summer of 1991, at WGR AM Radio in Buffalo, NY, and quickly became a fan favorite. He was then lured away by the legendary radio station WWWE in Cleveland. His success soon led to WIP Radio in Philadelphia, where he was the youngest person in the country to host a daily sports talk radio show in a major market. His success led to a nationally syndicated show broadcast on over 60 stations nationwide by Sportsline USA. He was wooed back to local radio by KKFN in Denver, Colorado, and later hired by crosstown rival KBPI to “”Rock the Rockies.”” In 2000, Craig returned to WIP in Philadelphia. From 2002-2007 Carton hosted The Jersey Guys Show, nominated for a Marconi Award and ranked as the most listened to afternoon show in America Carton was also named one of the most influential talk show hosts in America.

In 2007, WFAN in New York hired Craig along with fellow Hall of Fame member, Boomer Esiason. For the next ten years, Boomer and Carton dominated the ratings as the most listened to local morning show in the country and the highest rated show in FAN history. Winners of countless awards, Boomer and Carton were quickly simulcasted, first on MSG Network and then on CBS Sports Network. After a three year hiatus, Craig had a remarkable comeback. In 2020, he returned to WFAN to host the new Afternoon Drive Show, Carton and Roberts, reaching #1 for two years.

In 2021, Carton and Roberts became the first show to be simulcasted on the SNY television network. He is one of only two radio performers ever to be rated #1 in both Morning Drive and Afternoon Drive. In 2022, he became the host of a national television show on Fox Sports 1.

After three years with FS1 Carton returned to WFAN to host The Carton Show in Afternoon Drive and once again the show quickly became #1.

Most importantly, Carton has used his platform to support many worthy causes and has helped raise millions of dollars for local charities throughout the 5 boroughs. In January of 2021 he and WFAN debuted “Hello, My Name is Craig,” a public service show aimed at humanizing gambling addicts and bringing their stories to light. The show is now in its 6th year of airing on Sunday mornings on WFAN.
