WRKS/New York Announces Departure of Hughley
WRKS-FM (98.7 Kiss FM)/New York morning host D.L. Hughley officially exits the Emmis-owned Urban AC outlet. The station said in a release that the move is "due to reasons beyond the control of either party." Previously, Hughley's representatives had threatened to yank the comedian off the air in a pay dispute claiming the Urban AC owes Hughley about $359,000 for his morning show launched in July, 2009.
"Despite our best intentions, belief in their talent and even close friendships that have developed within our building... outside factors beyond our control have necessitated that we conclude the D.L. Hughley Morning Show on KISS FM," said Senior VP/Market Manager Alex Cameron.
"Mornings will remain local on Kiss FM with some familiar voices and a heavy dose of the music we're known for... stay tuned!," added Program Director Jill Strada. (08-18-10)
