McKay Running Radio One Houston

Radio One Houston has introduced Pamela B. McKay as its new Vice President, General Manager, overseeing Rhythmic KBXX (97.9 the Box), Urban AC KMJQ (Majic 102.1), Top 40 KROI (Radio Now 92.1) and Inspirational Praise 102.1 (KMJQ HD2). McKay is a longtime veteran of Texas radio — she’s the former Market President of iHeartMedia Austin, and she previously held sales leadership positions at KHMX, KPRC and KSEV in Houston.

McKay reports to David Kantor, CEO, Radio One and Reach Media, who said, “Today is a good day for Radio One Houston. Our team continues to literally weather the storm, but now can do so with a first-class leader who is willing to get into the trenches with them. We’re excited to have Pam join our team and look forward to the growth of the market based on her multifaceted skill set and robust experience.”

McKay commented, “Houston is a resilient city of tremendous opportunity and I am thoroughly honored to be returning to Houston to join the Radio One family. I look forward to re-connecting with previous clients, colleagues and community leaders while also developing many new and exciting partnerships. I’d like to thank Alfred Liggins and David Kantor for providing me the opportunity to represent this great team and these iconic brands to the Houston community.” McKay succeeds veteran manager Gary Spurgeon, who recently resigned.
