iHeartMedia-West Palm Beach/Treasure Coast announced today that Jason Carr has been named Senior Vice President of Programming, effective immediately. As SVP of Programming, Carr will be responsible for overseeing the programming and content of all 11 radio stations in the cluster. Additionally, he will serve as Program Director for Classic Rock WKGR (98.7 The Gater) and Talk WZZR–WCZR (Real Radio 92.1). He will report to Market President Mark McCauley.
“We’re excited to bring Jason back home,” said McCauley. “Jason’s market experience in Cleveland and his experience and familiarity of the West Palm Beach and Treasure Coast markets make him a great fit to grow our heritage brands and take them to new heights.”
Carr is being elevated from his previous role at iHeartMedia-Cleveland, where he served as PD of Rock 100.7 WMMS and Adult Hits WHLK (106.5 The Lake). He has been in the iHeartMedia family for over 15 years.
“I’m pumped to get in the trenches with this outstanding programming team,” said Carr. “Managing a heritage rock brand like 98.7 The Gater will be a treat. Working alongside world-class talent like WOLL‘s Mo & Sally will be a treasure. My wild ride of a career started at Real Radio 92.1 and all these year later it is bringing me back to the Palm Beaches and Treasure Coast. To say I’m excited is an understatement!”
