Conservative New York radio host on WABC, Sid Rosenberg, has received backlash for referring to New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani as a “terrorist” and “jihadist” during a discussion of recent Upper West Side stabbings.

In the segment, Rosenberg stated:

“This guy is a terrorist. That’s the bottom line, I’ll say it… He’s a terrorist, he’s a jihadist. He hates the Jewish people. He hates America… Those two people stabbed the other day on the Upper West Side of New York City, that blood is on his hands… We’ve got to find a way to get this guy out of here.”

Sid Rosenberg has been married to Danielle Rosenberg (née Conn) since 1992. They share two children; a daughter named Ava and a son named Gabriel. The radio host celebrated 33 years of his marriage in 2025. The couple marked the milestone with a trip to the Cap St Georges Hotel & Resort in Cyprus.

Everything you need to know about Sid Rosenberg’s controversial past

Sid Rosenberg has been making headlines after he hurled remarks on New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, labelling him as a “terrorist” and “jihadist.” This happened during Rosenberg’s appearance on Fox & Friends Weekend on July 25.

Rosenberg shared a snippet of the FOX News segment on his official X account. The post read:

“The full segment on FOX this morning where I went after @NYCMayor. It includes the back and forth with me and @GriffJenkins which eventually led to FOX apologizing twice FOR me after I left! By the way I like Griff a lot”

Sid Rosenberg later mentioned in a post on X that FOX News has apologized twice for his remarks stating that he stands by his remarks. Some netizens have slammed Rosenberg for his remarks.

They have labeled Rosenberg a “racist,” “bigot” and accused him of spreading hate and Islamophobia. At the same time, other online voices have defended Rosenberg arguing that his criticism targets Mamdani’s political positions and rhetoric.

In early March, Sid Rosenberg posted on X referring to Mamdani as an “America-hating, Jew-hating, Radical Islam cockroach” and a “Jihadist America hating mayor.” He urged US President Donald Trump to intervene through his posts which he later deleted seeking an apology for his remarks.

Rosenberg later offered a heartfelt apology on his 77 WABC radio show to the mayor and anyone else offended. He admitted that his tweet was "over the top" and that calling someone a bug was “not nice.” He further addressed that his comments were not meant to target anyone’s religion.

The controversial podcaster has faced intense pressure in the past following his remarks. He was fired from WQAM in 2012 following a DUI arrest. Police reports indicated he was found in a compromised state after leaving a strip club.

He was also charged with driving with a suspended license. Sid Rosenberg had been working with WQAM since September 2009 after serving three years at 790 The Ticket. He returned to the airwaves later in 2012 at WMEN 640AM. In December 2015, he was released from that station.

Sid Rosenberg’s wife Danielle Rosenberg is a practicing attorney. She is also the co-founder and executive director of Dyspraxia DCD America. Through this non-profit organization Danielle helps in raising awareness and support for children and families affected by developmental coordination disorder and dyspraxia, inspired by her own son's diagnosis.

Additionally, she is an avid marathon runner. Sid and Danielle welcomed their daughter, Ava Caroline Rosenberg in April 2004. The 22 year old graduated from a Manhattan high school. She completed her graduation from a university in Wales, United Kingdom. She has reportedly earned a degree in law from an Ivy League university.

Last year in November, Rosenberg shared an Instagram post celebrating his son, Gabriel’s 17th birthday, sending his love and best wishes.
