Audacy has announced lineup changes on KRLD-AM (NewsRadio 1080 KRLD) in Dallas. The station welcomes Joe Kelley (far left) as the new host of "The KRLD Morning News," which airs weekdays from 5-10am CT. Kelley joins KRLD from Orlando, where he held a similar position at WDBO. He returns to Dallas after serving in on-air roles for KLIF and later WBAP in the early 2000s. NAB named him as Large Market Personality of the Year in 2018.
Concurrently, station veteran Mike Rogers will be heard weekdays from 10am-12pm CT and host a long-form news-oriented talk show. A 32-year veteran of KRLD, Rogers previously served as the co-anchor of "The KRLD Morning News" and produces his daily feature "The Other Side of the News." Born and raised in Dallas, Rogers has held various on-air roles in Grand Junction, CO and Beaumont, TX, before returning to Dallas in 1987 to work at Magic 102.9 and later KRLD.
"We're proud to unveil the next phase of KRLD's new-look lineup by adding Joe Kelley and moving local favorite Mike Rogers to middays," Drew Anderssen, Audacy News & Talk Format Vice President, NewsRadio 1080 KRLD and Texas State Networks Brand Manager. "Mike has resonated with our listeners for over three decades, and we have no doubt he will continue to provide informative, relevant content to them in middays. We're equally excited to welcome Joe Kelley, who, with his rich background in news and multi-platform content distribution, will bring a wealth of experience and passion to our morning news."
"I am honored to join the esteemed KRLD brand and embrace the responsibility of upholding the legacy crafted by generations of broadcasters," said Kelley. "Returning to Texas-a place that resonates with familiarity and warmth-fills me with great enthusiasm. I look forward to further elevating KRLD's prominence in the North Texas community."
