Allyson Martinek Back On Detroit Radio

iHeartMedia AC WNIC/Detroit has taken full advantage of the extensive market equity possessed by Allyson Martinek, naming her as the new co-host of the Jay Towers In The Morning show, effective immediately. She replaces Kam Carman, who recently resigned after five years to pursue other endeavors. Martinek famously spent 20 years across the street at Cumulus rival WDVD as morning co-host with Blaine Fowler until her exit at the end of July 2015.

“We are thrilled to add Allyson to the WNIC lineup,” said a visibly thrilled Tony Travatto, SVP of Programming for iHeartMedia Michigan. “Allyson’s tenure and following in Detroit make her the perfect co-host for Jay Towers In The Morning. We know Allyson will really help WNIC to serve the audience and our clients better than ever.” Towers and Martinek broke their big news in a joint announcement yesterday morning on WJBK-TV Fox 2.
