Haber Hits Louisiana Ground Running
• Jeff Haber just landed in Louisiana, ready to tackle dual programming roles at iHeartMedia Top 40 WFMF/Baton Rouge and Adult Hits KVDU (104.1 The Spot)/New Orleans, effective immediately. He will also do middays on WFMF.
Haber is inbound from Northern California, where he most recently programmed Results Radio Top 40 KEWB (Power 94.7)/Redding, CA. He previously worked for iHeartMedia Los Angeles as the producer for Dave Styles at KBIG (104.3 MYfm) and the nationally syndicated Big Boy’s Neighborhood on KRRL (Real 92.3). He began his career at iHeartMedia Classic Rock WAXQ (Q104.3)/New York.
Haber’s new boss is Bob Murphy, Region SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia Louisiana, who commented, “We’re excited to have someone of Jeff’s caliber leading our day-to-day operations at 102.5 WFMF and 104.1 The Spot. 102.5 WFMF has been the Top 40 leader in Baton Rouge since 1979, and 104.1 The Spot is gaining traction as ‘New Orleans’ We Play Anything’ station. Jeff will be an incredible asset as both stations continue to grow.”
For his part, Haber said, “I’m so happy for the opportunity to work with an innovative, collaborative team that shares the same vision for what listeners want to hear. iHeartMedia has always felt like home and I’m excited to make 102.5 WFMF and 104.1 The Spot the best stations they can be. I can’t wait to surround myself with that southern hospitality and become a part of the Baton Rouge and New Orleans communities.” Haber succeeds former PD Joseph Sergio.
