GREATER MEDIA has named MICHAEL TOZZI PD/middayer of its new "Smooth Jazz 97.5 FM" in PHILADELPHIA, which is set to debut next month with the WJJZ calls (NET NEWS 10/13).

"GREATER MEDIA is a company that many of my friends have been attracted to over the last few years, so I'm delighted to be joining a team that's committed to winning in such a competitive marketplace."
