Bill Fox

Bill Fox is named Brand Manager and afternoon talent at Midwest Communications Country WDEZ-FM/Wausau, WI, effective June 21. He replaces John Richards, who left in February.

Previously, he aired in mornings on Townsquare Media Country WOKQ-FM/Portsmouth, NH.

I'd like to thank Chief Operations Officer Michael Wright, Market Manager Milko Villarreal and Operations Manager Rusty James for this amazing opportunity to lead such a legendary radio station. I can't wait to get started."

OM Randy James said, "I'm very excited to welcome Bill to our Central Wisconsin team. We are happy to include Bill's passion, innovation and talent to the already successful group."
