Houston Radio: Michael Harris, KCOH Feud Ends

Michael Harris

The legal dispute between Houston radio host Michael Harris and his on-again-off-again boss, KCOH 1230 AM president Jesse Dunn, has been resolved, according to The Houston Chronicle.

Harris County judges in June and this month signed orders ending the fraud lawsuit Harris filed against Dunn and the station last October.

The lawsuit accused Dunn of making false representations to induce Harris to secure personal lines of credit totaling $130,000 for the station and to back $38,000 in financing for radio equipment as well as misuse of funds. Dunn and his lawyer denied wrongdoing.

Harris parted ways with KCOH last September, ending a 38-year run.

Then, last month, Harris revived his long-running "Person to Person" weekday morning talk show on KCOH - signaling a repaired breach between the two men.

Billing itself as the state's oldest black-formatted station, KCOH signed on in 1953 and moved to its iconic "looking-glass" studio in Third Ward in 1963. In late 2012, the station's former owners sold the 1430 signal. Dunn debuted the new KCOH on 1230 AM in March 2013.
