Flag Family Media names a Farm Director to its broadcast team, with the addition of Bridgette Readel. She grew up on a farm near Wishek, North Dakota and graduated from North Dakota State University. Readel has worked for more than 2 decades as an agronomist, serving clients and providers with crop performance solutions. She and her husband Randy live in Hunter and are currently involved in the local farming community.

"Although I graduated from college as a high school ag teacher, I now find myself teaching adults the nature of production agriculture and truly enjoy sharing the bright and positive message of ag in North Dakota," said Readel. "I am thrilled to join the team at WDAY and The Flag and share the exciting moments and news from today's ag landscape. There are so many positive opportunities in agriculture, and I look forward to bringing those experiences home to our listeners."

"We couldn't imagine a better way to usher in the new year than to add a seasoned professional and gifted communicator like Bridgette," added Flag Family Media President and Managing Partner Steve Hallstrom. "A great Farm Director will enable us to serve our region in this important and diverse industry. The ag sector has become a fascinating world of autonomous machinery and precision technology, and Bridgette will be a huge piece of our leading-edge ag coverage."

Readel will begin on-air on January 17, providing live updates and reports throughout the broadcast day on WZFG-AM & FM/Fargo, WDAY-AM & FM/Fargo and KTGO-AM & FM/Tioga. In addition, her reports will be heard on Scott Hennen's statewide "What's On Your Mind" radio program from 9-11am weekdays, on WZFG, KTGO, and KFYR (Bismarck) and KLTC (Dickinson).
