RADIO ONLINE | Friday, May 14, 2021 |
Rock WHJY (94 HJY) and Hot AC WSNE-FM (Coast 93.3)/Providence, RI, sign Doug Palmieri to an extension of his broadcast agreement with iHeartMedia for four additional years. As part of the deal, Palmieri will continue to co-host 94 HJY's afternoon show, "Doug & Scarpetti," and Coast 93.3's "Doug and Jenn Morning Show." In addition, Palmieri will continue to serve as Program Director for both stations.
"We are so fortunate to have Doug as part of the team in Providence," said iHeartMedia Providence Market President Rhonda Lapham. "He brings so much knowledge and creativity to both stations and his longevity in particular with 94 HJY is one of the largest reasons for the station's continued success."
"I'm excited to continue as Program Director for both 94 HJY and Coast 93.3," said Palmieri. "iHeartMedia Providence is like home to me and I couldn't ask for a better group of people to work with. I want to thank iHeartMedia for giving me the opportunity to stay put for what I hope continues to be a long and successful run here in Providence."
Palmieri is a media veteran with several years in the radio and broadcast industry. He's previously served as Creative Services Director at WHEB/Portsmouth, NH and as Production Director for then-Entercom's WEEI Sports Radio Network market stations. In 1993, he got his start in radio as an intern and part-time employee for 94 HJY and returned to the station as night host and Production Director in 2013. He was then elevated to afternoon co-host and Program Director and recently acquired added-on programming responsibilities for Coast 93.3.
