    American Public Media Appoints Jean Taylor As President/CEO

    Posted: 11 Aug 2021 10:56 AM PDT https://radioinsight.com/headlines/211595/american-public-media-appoints-jean-taylor-as-president-ceo/



    American Public Media Group has announced the hiring of Jean Taylor as President and CEO.

    Taylor has served as Chairwoman of Minneapolis based Star Tribune Media
    since 2014 overseeing its digital transformation. She has also served as President CEO of Taylor Corporation, President of Life Is Now Inc., and
    Chair of eTouchMenu during her career. She will be the first woman to lead American Public Media Group and its subsidiaries Minnesota Public Radio, Southern California Public Radio and American Public Media.

    American Public Media Group’s (APMG) Board of Trustees announced today the selection of Jean Taylor as the next President and Chief Executive Officer
    of APMG. A search committee appointed by the Board led a rigorous, national search in partnership with Koya Partners, the executive search firm that specializes in partnering with mission-driven clients. Taylor will begin
    her duties as CEO on Aug. 23.

    Taylor is the first woman to lead the organization.

    “Our goal throughout this seven month process was to identify and select a strategic leader with a passion for public media, a commitment to
    diversity, equity, and inclusion and a vision that will inspire our
    employees, listeners and donors,” said Jim Dwyer, Chair of the Search Committee and of APMG’s Board of Trustees. “We are confident Jean embodies these attributes and priorities and believe she is the right leader to take APMG forward.”

    Taylor is an experienced CEO with proven success leading organizations
    through transformational change, creating and sustaining strong inclusive cultures and driving growth.

    “It is an exciting and critical time for public media, with tremendous opportunities to deliver quality journalism in new ways, connect with new audiences and more intentionally serve diverse communities,” said Taylor. “I am honored to lead this organization alongside the talented team at APMG.”

    Jean is a visionary leader, with an exceptional combination of skills and experiences to bring to her new role, said Mary Brainerd, APMG Board Vice Chair. She is someone who leads with her values, who cares deeply about the role of public media and its importance. She is a listener, and she is a learner. Her deep roots in our region, her experience in media and digital technologies and her understanding of APMG are important assets for our
    future.

    Taylor’s extensive career includes a number of senior leadership roles and spans a range of organizations and industries. Taylor was President CEO of Taylor Corporation from 2001 to 2010. Most recently, she served as chair of
    the Board of Star Tribune Media, where she helped guide the organization through significant digital transformation. During her tenure as Chair,
    Star Tribune has been lauded and seen as a leader in the industry for its commitment to high-quality public service journalism, its digital
    subscription growth, and its strong financial results. As an Executive Consultant for the Platinum Group, Taylor worked with small to mid-sized
    family and private business owners to enhance growth, value and transitions.

    “Jean has brought great strategic insight and passion to her role as the chair of the Star Tribune board,” said Michael Klingensmith, Publisher and CEO of Star Tribune. “We are grateful for her years of leadership and
    service to our board and Star Tribune as a whole. Jean leaves our
    organization a better place, and APMG is very fortunate to have a skilled leader like Jean as its CEO.”

    In transitioning to her new role, Taylor has stepped down from her board position with Star Tribune Media. Taylor succeeds Jon McTaggart who shared
    in late 2020 his decision to step down from the role after leading APMG for nearly 10 years.

    Shredd & Ragan To Move To 97 Rock Buffalo

    Posted: 11 Aug 2021 04:06 AM PDT https://radioinsight.com/headlines/211590/shredd-ragan-to-move-to-97-rock-buffalo/



    Following the April firings of Program Director John Hager and The Morning
    Bull hosts Rob Lederman, Rich Gaenzler and Chris Klein over racist comments made by Lederman in March comparing how he likes toast to the skin tones of black women, Cumulus Media Classic Rock 97 Rock 96.9 WGRF Buffalo has found
    its new morning show.

    Shredd Ragan, hosted by Ted Shredd and Tom Ragan, will move across the
    hall from its longtime perch on Alternative 103.3 The Edge WEDG to WGRF starting Monday, August 16. The duo have been heard on 103.3 since 1993
    first on Classic Rock 103.3 The Fox WUFX and since 1995 on The Edge, mostly
    in mornings but from 2006 to 2012 in afternoons.

    Cumulus has yet to announce its new morning plans for WEDG.

    CUMULUS MEDIA announces that it will bring The Shredd Ragan Show, one of
    the most successful morning radio shows in Buffalo radio history, to
    mornings on Cumulus Buffalo Classic Rock station, 97 Rock/WGRF-FM. The
    locally produced, Buffalo-focused program featuring longtime co-hosts Ted Shredd and Tom Ragan will debut on 97 Rock on Monday, August 16, 2021, and
    will air weekdays from 6:00am-10:00am.

    Shredd Ragan join 97 Rock from Cumulus Buffalo sister station 103.3 The Edge/WEDG-FM, where they have hosted one of Buffalo’s highest-rated morning shows for nearly three decades, attracting legions of passionate local listeners and winning them national recognition. The show debuted on
    WUFX-FM in 1993 and was the original morning show for the launch of 103.3
    The Edge in 1995. The popular on-air team’s unique style and love of
    Western New York has created legions of passionate listeners locally and
    won them national recognition. In addition to being an essential ingredient
    in the daily routine of thousands of listeners, Shredd Ragan have helped
    raise tens of thousands of dollars for people in need through fundraisers
    for the Variety Club, The Ride For Roswell, and many other local charities.

    Shredd an avid skier, car enthusiast, and softball coach – has also been heard on-air at WPHD-FM/Buffalo and 14X/Buffalo, as well as on stations in Reno, NV, and Manchester, NH. Ragan started his broadcasting career as a spotter and statistician for his father’s high school football and
    basketball play-by-play duties. He worked at radio stations in Pennsylvania
    and West Virginia before hosting afternoons on WGR/Buffalo and eventually teaming with Shredd on WUFX-FM and WEDG-FM.

    Jim Riley, Vice President/Market Manager, Cumulus Buffalo, said: “After considering many options, we found that the best choice for 97 Rock
    mornings was already in our building. We’re so excited to add Shredd Ragan to 97 Rock’s lineup and believe they will supercharge our existing slate of Buffalo’s favorite radio personalities.”

    Joe Russo, Program Director, 97 Rock/WGRF-FM, noted: “When I thought about what type of show was big enough for 97 Rock, it kept coming back to
    Shredd Ragan. This is the show everyone talks about, it’s highly
    addictive, and you never want to miss a day. They are the perfect fit for
    where we are going with 97 Rock and the perfect addition to our already legendary lineup.”

    Tom Ragan, Co-Host, Shredd Ragan, commented: “We’re thrilled this radio show experiment somehow continues to work. A big thanks to the Cumulus
    Buffalo group including Joe Russo, Joe Siragusa and Jim Riley, along with the team we go to work with every day, Jim Jacka and Evan James, for
    helping to make this a success. Finally, and most importantly, a huge
    thanks for the friendship and support of the great people of Buffalo and Western New York who embraced us many years ago and made this area our home. We’re grateful beyond measure.”

    Ted Shredd, Co-Host, Shredd Ragan, remarked: “We’re really excited about making the move! 97 Rock has been a powerhouse in Buffalo forever and to be able to bring our show to that platform is a great opportunity for us to
    grow our audience. For years we’ve battled against them and now we are joining forces. I see that as a win-win.”
