Cat’s Back In Vegas, Baby!
• Cat Thomas is coming home to Las Vegas, hired by Beasley Media Group as Operations Manager of KCYE (102.7 Coyote Country), Classic Hits KKLZ, Talk KDWN (720AM/101.5FM), Urban AC KOAS (Jammin’ 105.7) and Hot AC KVGS (Star 107.9), effective Monday, November 16.
Thomas returns home from St. Louis, where was most recently OM/PD of Entercom’s KNOU (Now 96.3), Hot AC KYKY (Y98) and AC 102.5 KEZK. It’s safe to say that Thomas is well acquainted with the Las Vegas market — he notably spent 28 years with CBS Radio/Entercom Las Vegas, rising to VP of Programming for the cluster and PD of KLUC/Las Vegas for 20 years. He later spent two years with Cumulus Media as VP of Contemporary Formats until Oct. 2018. Two months later he joined Entercom St. Louis. And now you’re up to date.
“Cat’s knowledge of the market and leadership experience will be invaluable to our success across the breadth of our station group,” said Peter Burton, VP/Market Manager of Beasley Media Group Las Vegas. “We are thrilled to have him join our team!” Thomas remarked, “Sometimes the stars align… I couldn’t be more excited to join the outstanding family at Beasley Las Vegas. The company has shown to be the top of the class when it comes to local broadcasting and audience engagement. Many thanks to Brian Beasley, Peter Burton, Justin Chase and Mike O’Brian for their incredible support!”
