NYC Radio: VP/MM Deon Levingston OUT At Emmis Cluster

Deon Levingston

Deon Levingston has left Emmis Communications’ New York cluster after nearly two years as senior VP/market manager.

An Emmis spokesperson told InsideRadio the company chose not to renew Levingston’s contract, which expired at the end of December. Emmis has not named a replacement and is working on interim management plans for its top market cluster.

Levingston managed rhythmic CHR WQHT Hot 97.1 FM, UrbanAC WBLS 107.5 FM and gospel WLIB 1190 AM for Emmis since March 2014.

Before that he spent nearly a decade running WBLS and WLIB as VP/GM when the stations were owned by YMF Media and, before that, Inner City Broadcasting.
