A federal race discrimination lawsuit Ms. Bell filed against WTAE’s owner, Hearst Stations, was settled earlier this year.
KDKA-AM also will be adding Hayes-Freeland to host the midday 10 a.m.-2 p.m. time slot. Ms. Hayes-Freeland previously served as a reporter, producer and talk show host for KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh since 1977. This is Ms. Hayes-Freeland’s second stint with KDKA-AM, having begun her broadcast career as a producer for the station in 1976.
“Radio is a perfect place to learn, explore and grow, and I look forward to the chance to do just that with listeners just as curious as me every day,” Ms. Hayes-Freeland said. “It feels great to be back home on KDKA.”
