Manley Exits KTRS, Heading Back To Chicago
CH HOLDINGS Talk-Sports KTRS-A/ST. LOUIS PD TODD MANLEY is exiting the station after a year to return to CHICAGO to join marketing-communications firm TUKAIZ IMAGING-PRINT-INTERACTIVE as Manager of New Business & Consumer Markets. MANLEY partnered with the firm and its head FRANK DEFINO JR. to produce CUBS theme music while MANLEY was serving as Creative Director of TRIBUNE Talk WGN-A/CHICAGO.
MANLEY tells ALL ACCESS, "My staff here at KTRS is in great hands. Our Executive Producer LAUREN RYAN and Operations Coordinator KARA CARTER will have expanded roles. KTRS sports programming couldn't have a better leader than JOHN HADLEY. I will continue to be involved in developing the station's imaging alongside Creative Services Director STEVE WEIN."

: : When I interviewed Todd in November 2007, he was the creative director at WGN. He has since moved to St. Louis and is the program director of KTRS. I asked him how he is liking his new gig...
: : Todd: I’m lovin’ the work. The team here is full of energy, and can do it all. You’d dig it, because that’s your background. Sling sound. Host. Book. Package. Kiss babies. I just got our FIX-IT guy booked as the builder on the St. Louis episode of ABC’s Extreme Makeover Home Edition !!
: : August 18th we re-launched our morning show – I reunited our current star with his former partner and they’re really a great combo platter of jib and jab and have a taste of Bill and Wendy(aka Q101 days). I always loved those two. It will be a re-freshing way to do News-Talk. Also very proud of our web-site – www.ktrs.com – Our PM drive star has a tremendous blog internal to the site. I sure miss Chicago – but this has been a really rewarding adventure.
