Effective tomorrow (11/9), EMMIS Alternative WKQX (Q101.1)/CHICAGO is adding more music to "THE MORNING FIX" and JAMES ENGEL, GINGER JORDAN, DAVE BALL, AEMILIA SCOTT, and MICHAEL McCARTHY have been let go from the morning show.
ALAN COX continues as host of THE MORNING FIX, with JIM LYNAM delivering news, sports, and traffic. LOU LOMBARDO remains as producer.
WKQX Brand Manager TISA LaSORTE said, "THE MORNING FIX will play a lot more music and keep the primary information elements only. The research we have recently completed clearly tells us that our music focus is in sync with audience demand, and that our listeners really want to listen to our Alternative music in all dayparts."
Also, NED SPINDLE returns as Imaging Director for Q101.1, allowing KEVYN HOWARD to focus on imaging for sister Classic Rock WLUP (97.9 THE LOOP).
