Jim Kinney Retires From WMGK/Philly
Kinney was originally hired at what was then Magic 103 in 1984 by former Program Director Bob Craig. Kinney earlier programmed WWKS/Beaver Falls, PA; WTUE/Dayton, OH; WYDD/Pittsburgh and WMAD/Madison, WI.
“Jim has been the ‘Rock’ in Classic Rock 102.9MGK for 39 years,” said Bill Weston, Beasley VP of Talent Development and PD of WMGK & WMMR. “In every role, he has embodied professionalism, kindness and respect for all of us fortunate enough to work with him.”
