JBG Names Langmyer VP of News/Talk Programming


Tom Langmyer is appointed VP of News/Talk Programming for Journal Broadcast Group, effective August 12. He had been consulting News/Talk WTMJ-AM/Milwaukee and will now work with VP/Programming Beverlee Brannigan on JBG's News and Talk stations on a national basis. Previously, Langmyer served as VP/GM for Tribune's WGN-AM/Chicago and CBS Radio's KMOX-AM/St. Louis.

Executive VP Steve Wexler said, "I am thrilled to welcome Tom to the Journal family. He is a trusted leader with a well-known track record of success. He understands the importance of heritage stations like WTMJ. I've known Tom for years and am happy to finally be able to call him a fellow employee."

"I've admired Journal Broadcast Group for many years as a leader in local content -- and for their service to their communities. WTMJ is Wisconsin's iconic multi-platform brand, with great personalities, dependable news and it's also revered as the home of the Packers, Brewers, Badgers and Bucks," added Langmyer. "I'm honored and excited to join Steve, Beverlee and Journal."

Langmyer has also served as VP/Programming for the former Infinity Broadcasting's ten News/Talk outlets. Langmyer joined KMOX in 1992, first serving as PD, then later as OM and was named VP/GM in 2003. Before KMOX, he was Operations Director at WSYR-AM and WYYY-FM/Syracuse.
