Ridio One Regional Vice President Doug Abernethy says Alan Furst (pictured) will assume the duties of PD for News 92 FM (KROI-FM) beginning January 7th. Since the station?s sign on just over a year ago, programming responsibilities have been covered by consultant Ed Shane in cooperation with Radio One?s corporate programming staff. Furst is a former consultant for Shane Media and has spent over twenty years working in Texas markets.
Furst, currently the program director of Emmis' News/Talk 93 WIBC-FM in Indianapolis, says he is ready for the challenge. "I'm thrilled to return to Houston and join News 92 FM. Radio One has put together a great team and the energy in the building is electric. We?re going to build something very big and very special that will become a force in the nation?s fourth largest city.
Abernathy said, ?Alan is exactly the programming pro we?ve been looking for. He?s got the talent, the drive, the enthusiasm, and, most importantly, a track record of success. He knows the market, he knows the format, and we are confident Alan can deliver big results."
