MS Radio: David Mueller Lands Mornings On WMYQ Greenwood

David 'Stonewell Jackson' Mueller

Former KYGO Denver morning personality David Mueller, who a jury found groped Taylor Swift at a backstage meet-and-greet in 2013, is back on the air today at WMYQ 92.7 FM in Greenwood, MS.

Mueller’s on-air name will be Stonewall Jackson, according to RadioInk.

Until now, Mueller couldn’t find a job in radio and was willing to go anywhere and work for nothing, just to get back on-air. Recently Delta Radio Network CEO Larry Fuss reached out to Mueller and offered him a job.

According to RadioInk, one week later Fuss received an e-mail from Mueller. It read: “Is this just a stunt, or do you really have a job open?” Fuss told Mueller it was a little of both, but he really was looking for a morning person for his new FM in Greenwood, MS.

“We talked a lot over a period of a couple of months and I eventually flew to Minneapolis to meet him. When he explains the Taylor Swift incident, he’s either the world’s best liar, or he’s telling the truth. Having heard him tell the story, I’m inclined to believe him and the rest of the staff seems to believe him as well. The evidence was rather inconclusive, but the jury was apparently star struck with Taylor Swift and found in her favor. It was a civil trial, not a criminal trial, so the burden of proof was much lower.”

Fuss offered Mueller the job in Greenwood. “I also told him if he just wanted to come and work for six months to a year to get his radio career back on track, I was OK with that. He said, ‘No, I’m coming to stay long-term.'”

After getting cut at Denver’s country KYGO 98.5 FM following a claim that he’d groped Taylor Swift’s butt, Mueller eventually sued her. She counter-sued and won a $1 verdict.

Mueller starts his new morning gig today.
