Tom Kent Launches ‘Diva Diner’

• The Tom Kent Radio Network just added a new show to its extensive portfolio of products — The Diva Diner features the hottest hits from today’s most prominent female artists and is targeted to AC and Hot AC stations. The Diva Diner is hosted by Jackie Newton (pictured, below), who has been doing midday afternoons on TKRN’s 24/7 FUN format since 2010.

New affiliates of The Diva Diner (listed by DMA) are Muirfield Broadcasting AC WIOZ/Raleigh, NC; Radio Plus AC WFDL/Milwaukee; Commonwealth Broadcasting AC WVKB/Louisville; Cross Country Communications AC WKZA/Buffalo, NY and Jackson County Broadcasting Hot AC WKOV/Charleston-Huntington, WV.

TKRN CEO/President Tom Kent said, “Jackie’s extensive music knowledge and hipness in the format make her the perfect personality for The Diva Diner. She’s serving up today’s top female artists as a daily stripped down hourly feature and weekends as an excellent five-hour weekend option. Smart programmers in the AC and Hot AC formats understand that women are the chief drivers of this female-driven format. You definitely need to listen to her aircheck — she’s fantastic on the air!” For affiliation info, contact our friend Ed Douglas at 614-321-6708 or EdD@TomKentRadio.com.
