Meruelo Media ups Emmanuel "E-Man" Coquia to Director of Programming and Content for Meruelo Media. In this new post, E-Man will head the programming and music content for KPWR-FM (Power 106) and 93.5 KDAY. Additionally, he'll oversee the initial stages of the new Latin Rhythmic format on KLLI-FM (CALI 93.9). He took over as interim Program Director for Power 106 and KDAY on February 1.

E-man personally recruited Nick Cannon and together they created the new Power 106 morning show. He also overhauled the 93.5 KDAY Morning Show with Romeo and added Cece to the mix. Today, he is an instrumental player in the developmental stage and launch of the all-new "Cali 93.9."

"E-Man is Our-man," stated Meruelo Media President/COO Otto Padron. "After an exhaustive nationwide search that attracted some of the most talented PD's in America - the choice was clear. E-Man had a sensible plan and a vision that aligned perfectly with our goals to disrupt the industry with new hyper local LA content. Above all, he had boundless confidence strengthened by a time-built arsenal of industry respect from the labels, artist, management, colleagues and fellow Meruelo Media team members."

E-Man added, "I'm truly excited to continue to lead the incredible winning teams at our two iconic Hip Hop radio stations in Los Angeles; Power 106 & 93.5 KDAY. I am also enjoying every minute assembling and developing the new Cali 93.9 team. I would like to thank Alex Meruelo, Luis Armona, Otto Padron, Tommy Trujillo, and the entire Meruelo Media family for this incredible opportunity."
