Morning co-host Roxanne Steele exits Cumulus Media's Country WDRQ-FM (New Country 93.1)/Detroit after less than five months in the post for reportedly not getting the COVID vaccine as mandated by the company. She became co-host of the "Broadway in the Morning" show with Bill "Broadway" Bertschinger last May after working parttime for the station since 2018.

Prior to WDRQ, Steele handled middays at crosstown Audacy Country WYCD-FM/Detroit. Before that, she spent 12 years on-air with CBS Radio Chicago as afternoon host with WBBM-FM (B96) and then afternoons on sister WCFS-FM (Fresh 105.9).
