MacLeod Named OM, Alpha Media Portland

• Alpha Media, Portland is excited to introduce Ross MacLeod as the new Operations Manager for the company’s home market. He will also serve as Content Director for KXL-FM (FM News 101) and Sports-Talk KXTG-AM (750 The Game).

The new gig marks a return to the Portland market for MacLeod, who previously programmed iHeartMedia Classic Rock KFBW (105.9 The Brew). He touches down from Miami, where he spent the past five years as PD of iHeartMedia Classic Rock WBGG (Big 105.9). Prior to his arrival in sunny Miami in April 2019, MacLeod was PD of iHeart Classic Hits sister KYRV (93.7 The River)/Sacramento.

MacLeod spent his formative radio years in Canada, where he programmed Rogers Adult Hits CJAQ (Jack 96.9)/Calgary, Alberta, Corus Alternative CFNY (102.1 The Edge)/Toronto and Bell Media Active Rock CJAY 92/Calgary, to name a few.

“I’m looking forward to working with some of the amazing talent we have in Portland, and leading this cluster to new heights,” MacLeod said. “KXL is a heritage News-Talk leader in Portland and I couldn’t be more honored to be part of this team.”
