Howard Stern Adds Nine Infinity Stations
Infinity President/COO Joel Hollander announced this morning that the WXRK/New York syndicated morning host is returning to five markets where he was taken off the air by Clear Channel on Feb. 26. He will return to the air in Pittsburgh (WBZZ-FM), San Diego (KPLN-FM), West Palm Beach (WPBZ-FM), Rochester (WZNE-FM) and Orlando (WOCL-FM), while adding markets in Tampa (WQYK-AM), Austin (KQBT-FM), Fresno (KRNC-FM) and Houston (KIKK-AM). The Howard Stern Show will debut on the aforementioned stations on Monday, July 19. "Howard has dominated the radio landscape for more than 20 years," said Hollander. "The millions of listeners who tune into the Howard Stern Show on a daily basis is unmatched in the industry. He delivers one of the most loyal audiences in radio who will no doubt embrace his return." Adds Stern, "I can't wait to get back into the markets where we were taken off. I've missed my fans and judging from the countless emails and calls I've received, they've missed the show. Now we have the opportunity to be together again. It will be great." Stern also added praise for Viacom Chairman/CEO Sumner Redstone, newly-minted co-COO Les Moonves and Joel Hollander for their support of him, especially in the wake of former President/COO Mel Karmazin's recent departure.
