American General Media names radio vet "Big Benny" Martinez as Program Director of Classic Hits KABG-FM (Big 98.5)/Albuquerque, effective November 4. A familiar face (and voice) in the market, Martinez has spent the majority of his career in Albuquerque, most recently as morning producer and co-host at KIOT. Prior to that, Martinez handled mornings at Rhythmic AC KSYU-FM. He's also served as APD at KPTY-FM/Phoenix and KCHX-FM/Midland, TX.
"We're extremely excited to welcome Benny back to AGM. He is a wildly enthusiastic and talented collaborator, with a great passion for radio. Our employees are our competitive advantages, and the addition of Benny only strengthens those," said Market Manager Suzy Rufail.
"I am very excited to be a part of the BIG 98.5 family", added Martinez. "I'm also excited to work with the great staff assembled here. I look forward to continuing the great things that have been done with BIG 98.5, and I hope to add what I can to make a great radio station even greater. Together as a team, I know that we can accomplish that."
