Phoenix Radio: Ben Campbell MIA From KNIX-FM

Ben Campbell, a longtime morning host, is no longer with iHeartMedia's Country KNIX 102.5 FM.

Campbell, who was a host of “The Tim, Ben & Brooke Show” weekday mornings on the Phoenix country-music station, has not been on the air for a couple of weeks.

A spokesperson confirmed Friday that Campbell is no longer with the station.

“The Tim, Ben & Brooke Show” began airing on the station in January 2017, when KNIX put Tim Hattrick, Brooke Hoover and Campbell together on mornings.

AZCentral.com reports the spokesperson did not respond to requests for more information. Campbell couldn’t be reached for comment at the time of writing. 

Ben was an award-winning host

“The Tim, Ben & Brooke Show” replaced, in effect, the Ben and Matt show — hosted by Campbell and McAllister — when the station let McAllister go in late 2016.

Ben and Matt were named personalities of the year by the Academy of Country Music in 2009 and the Country Music Association in 2015.

After leaving the show, McAllister went to Seattle, where in 2019 he won the Country Music Association’s major market broadcast personality of the year.
