JOHNSON told ALL ACCESS, "it was great to be part of the team to improve FANATIC ratings the past 2 years! I wish all my former co-workers nothing but the best going forward. I've been at this radio game for 41 years and have met many talented people along the way -- and will always be grateful for that. Now I have a little time to enjoy the holidays and decide what to do next!
"Thanks to BEASLEY MEDIA GROUP for giving me the opportunity to help grow 97.5 THE FANATIC’s ratings by 32% in prime, 43% in AM drive, 31% midday and 27% afternoons year to year men 25-54. Looking forward to the holiday season to re-set and I’m optimistic about life’s next chapter!"
