St. Louis Radio: Tony Scott Joins WFUN for Weekends

Tony Scott

Beginning this weekend,St. Louis personality Tony Scott returns for two shifts at WFUN 95.5 FM/Old School, airing Saturdays 2 p.m.-7 p.m. and Sundays 3 p.m.-7 p.m.

According to stltoday.com, it’s a relief for Scott’s fans still fuming over his dismissal in May from his 26-year perch at iHeartMedia at KMJM 100.3 FM at what was then Majic 100.3 and his “The Tony and Tammie Morning Show”.

Scott’s new position at Radio One’s Old School 95.5 puts him in the hands of his one-time competitor, which snapped him up once he was contractually allowed to return to the airwaves.

“I’m excited. I want to shake off the rust and give the people what they expect from me,” says Scott.

@MorrisKKaos @tonyscottmedia will be on Saturday 2-7 and Sunday 3-7!! Make sure you listen in!

“Tony Scott represents a big portion of radio in St. Louis. We still believe he has a lot of value to add to radio listenership here. We’re happy to him as a part of what we’re trying to achieve,” says Boogie D, operations director at Old School 95.5 and Hot 104.1 and on-air personality at Hot 104.1.

He adds Scott's airing now as it relates to Ferguson is a coincidence. “It wasn’t something planned. It was about the time frame we were able to make the deal happen and getting him on as fast as we could. It all worked out timing-wise.”
