Cumulus Media appoints Jason Ginty as Program Director for WZRH-FM (Alt 92.3) and WRKN-FM (NASH Icon Country 106.1) in New Orleans and for WRQQ-FM (Classic Hits 103.3) in Baton Rouge. This marks a return to Cumulus for Ginty, who has programmed and been on-air at Louisiana stations for the past 15 years and served PD for WRKN-FM from 2010-2013. He rejoins the company from crosstown WKBU-FM, when he aired in middays for almost seven years. Ginty also served as PD for WDVW-FM and WMIT-FM in New Orleans. He also was PD of KRDJ-FM in Lafayette, LA.

Cumulus New Orleans-Baton Rouge Regional VP/Market Manager Pat Galloway said, "I have known Jason for a long time, and he has had years of success in New Orleans radio. Jason is a great fit for this opportunity and will bring the knowledge and passion needed for these three stations to continue to thrive and grow."

Ginty commented, "It's great to be back in the Cumulus family. I'm excited to work with Doug Hamand, Troy Hanson, Val Garris and James Kurdziel on these incredible stations. Pat Galloway and I have worked in the New Orleans market for years but never at the same company. Can't wait to finally work with him and the entire New Orleans and Baton Rouge teams."
