Fox VP/Music Prog. For Entercom Dallas
“Jim has guided the Alternative format for [KKDO] Radio 94.7 and [Active Rock KRXQ] 98 Rock to exceptional ratings performance in Sacramento,” said Brian Purdy, Regional President and Market Manager for Entercom Dallas-Fort Worth. “We can count on him for outstanding leadership, strategy, ideas, operation, coaching and partnership.”
In breaking the news to Fox’s colleagues in Sacramento, VP/Market Manager Lance Richard said, “Jim has been an incredible leader here in Sacramento for over 14 years and has been a big part of our success. Under his leadership we have built a portfolio of radio brands that has put us in the enviable position to dominate almost every demographic group. Jim’s impact hasn’t just been limited to just ratings success — countless employees, from programming, to promotions, to engineering, to traffic, to creative, to sales have been impacted by Jim’s coaching and have grown into true radio professionals.”
As he searched through his garage for a suitcase, Fox remarked, “It’s an underestimation to say that this is an exciting time to be a part of Entercom. I’m honored and extremely proud to have the good fortune to leave one incredibly successful Entercom cluster to join another incredibly successful Entercom cluster in Dallas under the leadership of Brian Purdy.”
