iHEARTMEDIA Alterative KLLT (ALT 104.9)/ST. LOUIS PD/afternooner DUSTIN FLETCHER MATTHEWS is upped to Director/Alternative Rock Programming for iHEARTMEDIA’S ST. LOUIS Region as well as PD of sister Alternative KDXA (ALT 106.3)/DES MOINES. The ALT 106.3 PD chair has been vacant since MIKE KILLABREW moved to iHEARTMEDIA/INDIANAPOLIS as SVP/Programming over a year ago (NET NEWS 3/14/16).
FLETCHER will be responsible for the day-to-day programming operations for the iHEARTMEDIA ST. LOUIS Region Alternative Rock brands, ALT 104.9 and ALT 106.3. He will continue to serve as the PD for ALT 104.9, a position he has held since DECEMBER 2016. FLETHER will work closely with both markets on-air personalities and sales teams to oversee the stations’ on-air content, digital footprint and music programming.
SVPP/iHEARTMEDIA ST. LOUIS A.J. said, "“Nobody knows the Alternative Rock format and core audience better than FLETCHER, who is a gifted programmer with unmeasurable creativity."
“FLETCHER has already made a huge impact with ALT 104.9 in ST. LOUIS during his short time in the market,” added RSVPP/ST. LOUIS Region GREG CHANCE. “I’m positive he will continue to take our ST. LOUIS Region Alternative Rock brands to new heights with his expanded role.”
“This is a huge opportunity leading our programming efforts at ALT 106.3 in DES MOINES,” said FLETCHER. “I’m extremely proud of what we’ve done with ALT 104.9. The ST. LOUIS Region has some of the most talented programming and on-air talent in radio and I’m excited for what we have in store.”
