"After much thought and deliberation, we’ve decided not to move forward with our plans to build a headquarters for Amazon in Long Island City, Queens," Amazon spokeswoman Jodi Seth said.

Carol D'Auria

4pm - 9pm

Carol D’Auria began her broadcasting career in 1976 at Cablevision as a writer for Channel 12. Since then she has worked at eight radio stations in the metropolitan area. For the past 14 years she has worked at 1010 WINS as both general assignment news reporter and as an anchor.

Carol is a Long Island native although most of her work takes her to the five boroughs of New York City. She finds “breaking” news stories the most exciting and the most challenging, although at times waiting for them to happen can be a test of her creativity and endurance.

Ms. D’Auria is a graduate of Nassau Community Collage and Queens College. She performs annually at the Inner Circle show, which raises money for various area charities. Ms. D’Auria is a member of the Order of the Sons of Italy.

Finally, although Carol attributes her success to the unconditional support of her parents, her own discipline and plain, old tenacity as well as some really good luck!
