Roberts Named PD of iHeart’s Vegas Bull
Roberts spent the past four years with Alpha Media as PD of KUPL (95.5 The Bull)/Portland, OR and Country Format Captain until early April, when he was one of many caught up in corporate COVID-related downsizing. Prior to his arrival in Portland in March 2016, Roberts spent a decade as PD of Cumulus Top 40 simulcast KHOP & KWIN/Modesto-Stockton, CA. Before taking command of KHOP in 2006, Roberts was APD/MD/night jock at then Citadel sister KATM/Modesto. His previous stops include KQFC/Boise, ID and KXDD/Yakima, WA.
Roberts reports to Tony Matteo, SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia Las Vegas, who said, “MoJoe brings a wealth of format knowledge and expertise. We’re thrilled to have him joining our iHeartMedia Las Vegas team.” Roberts remarked, “I’ve long admired iHeartMedia’s innovation and forward-thinking, so I’m thrilled to join the iHeartCountry family and lead the charge at 95.5 The Bull. To do so in the entertainment capital of the world is a dream come true. I want to give a big thank you to iHeartMedia for this awesome opportunity.”
