CUMULUS MEDIA has appointed JASON GINTY as PD for Alternative WZRH (ALT 92.3) and Country WRKN (NASH ICON COUNTRY 106.1)/NEW ORLEANS, as well as Classic Hits WRQQ (CLASSIC HITS 103.3)/BATON ROUGE, LA. GINTY replaces BRAD STEINER, who moved to AUDACY/NEW YORK as Regional Brand Mgr., Alternative Progamming earlier this year (NET NEWS 3/25).
It's a return to CUMULUS for GINTY after programming/on-air for LOUISIANA radio stations for the past 15 years. GINTY rejoins CUMULUS from Classic Rock WKBU (BAYOU 95.7)/NEW ORLEANS, where he was midday host for almost seven years. He also previously was PD for NEW ORLEANS stations Hot AC WDVW and Adult Hits WMIT, and was PD of Rock KRDJ/LAFAYETTE, LA. GINTY was also previously PD for CUMULUS at WRKN from 2010-2013.
CUMULUS NEW ORLEANS/BATON ROUGE RVP/Market Mgr. PAT GALLOWAY commented, “I have known JASON for a long time, and he has had years of success in NEW ORLEANS radio. He is a great fit for this opportunity and will bring the knowledge and passion needed for these three stations to continue to thrive and grow.”
Added GINTY, “It’s great to be back in the CUMULUS family! I’m excited to work with DOUG HAMAND, TROY HANSON, VAL GARRIS and JAMES KUDZIEL on these incredible stations. PAT GALLOWAY and I have worked in the NEW ORLEANS market for years but never at the same company. Can’t wait to finally work with him and the entire NEW ORLEANS and BATON ROUGE teams!"
