Morini Comes Home To iHeart Raleigh
• iHeartMedia has named Trevor Morini as Vice President of Programming for the Raleigh market and PD of Top 40 WDCG (G105). If that news sounds vaguely familiar, that’s because Morini previously served as SVP of Programming for Raleigh and PD of G105 until Nov. 2020, when he was one of many downsized during a round of corporate restructuring.
Morini rejoined the company last year and most recently served as Format Center Executive Producer for iHeartMedia’s National Programming Group. He now reports to Alan Kirshbom, Market President for iHeartMedia Raleigh and A.J., SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia Charlotte & Raleigh.
“Trevor is a positive and creative leader,” said Kirshbom. “He gained extremely valuable experience from the National Programming Group, which he will be bringing to the Raleigh team. I’m excited to have him back. Welcome home, Trevor!” A.J. commented, “Trevor holds a winning track record and I’m overjoyed to have him lead our programming team once again in Raleigh. His unique perspective, positive energy and creativity make him a superstar.”
Morini said, “I’m thrilled for the opportunity to lead the talented programming team in Raleigh. Together we will build upon their success and continue to grow our market-leading brands, and I am honored to be a part of it. Thank you to the iHeartMedia senior leadership team for their continued support.”
Morini’s earlier iHeart programming stops include KHFI and ALT 97.5 (KASE HD-2)/Austin, and KTBT (92.1 The Beat)/Tulsa. Morini started his radio career on Cape Cod, MA, doing weekends/fill-in at WRZE (96.3 The Rose) and WCOD. From there he did weekends on Cumulus Top 40 92 PRO-FM/Providence, later crossing the hall to Rhythmic sister WWKX (Hot 106.3), where he rose to APD/afternoons.
