Valentine Inks Extension At 104.3MYfm/L.A.

• iHeartMedia Hot AC KBIG (104.3 MYfm)/Los Angeles announced that top-rated morning personality Sean Valentine has signed a new multi-year deal to continue hosting Valentine in the Morning.

Valentine started his radio career at the age of 15 as an intern at “a local radio station” in his Connecticut hometown. He later spent time as a police officer in Connecticut but knew radio was his true calling. Since 1996, Valentine has been a recognizable fixture on L.A. radio, starting as the night jock across the hall at the legendary 102.7 KIIS-FM, and later promoted to afternoon drive. In 2007 he moved over to 104.3 MYfm, and launched Valentine in the Morning.

“MYfm and Valentine are synonymous — he is a true pro who is the cornerstone of MYFM and I am thrilled that he’ll continue to host the morning show for many more years,” said John Peake, SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia Los Angeles, and PD of 104.3 MYfm. “Each day thousands of SoCal listeners wake up to a fun, energetic and authentic show where they learn, laugh, shed a tear and never get bored. I’m thrilled to have Valentine continue to anchor the MYFM morning show.”

Valentine commented, “After 25 years in L.A. with iHeartMedia, I’m still pumped to come to work every day and make that special connection with the audience. The entire Valentine in the Morning team (Jillian, Brian, Jon, Valerie and I) are super excited about the honor of being a part of our listeners’ daily lives now for the next several years. We’re truly a family, and we can’t wait to see what happens next. Thank you to John Peake and everyone at iHeartMedia.”
