Jeanne Ashley is appointed Assistant Program Director at KSWD-FM (94.1 The Sound) in Seattle. She'll also assume the role of co-host of the Entercom AC outlet's morning show, joining air personality John Fisher, weekdays from 5-10am for "John and Jeanne." Ashley is an industry vet with broadcast experience dating back to 1990, including on-air roles for WFEZ and WLYF/Miami, KCKC/Kansas City, WYYY/Syracuse NY and WLZW/Utica NY.
"Jeanne is an exceptional radio talent and we are happy to have her join The Sound's air team because of her deep understanding of the values of the Adult Contemporary format, from the interests of its fans to its music library," said Entercom Seattle Senior VP/Market Manager Jack Hutchison. "She is fresh, engaging and a great fit with John's wit and local wisdom. Her music programming skills will provide us with greater creative power in packaging and presenting The Sound's unique blend of relaxing favorites."
Thank goodness. Maybe she can give Fisher a cattle prod.
Well that's a lovely gift. But 94.1 isn't a country station anymore.
Just what we need another cheesy out of towner coming in with fake smiles and super encouraging comments on air for your morning. Won't make a difference.
So what are we supposed to do then? Build a wall?
Many Seattle radio air personalities aren't originally from this area. They come and if they like it (most do), they often stay. Might be tougher these days with the insane cost of living around here. But even with that, people often get attached to this place and find a way to stay.
It gets really old the same old schtick new talent in the market, sunny cheesy fake radio smiles on air... "Hey everybody, it's Suuuuuuper to wake up every day with you and remember it's going to be an awesome day so get out there. Your chance to win $1k on the way with the Free Money Shout Out first it's Adel with her hit Rolling In the Deep" - Puke city
