“We’re excited to have Bill join our team in Tucson,” said Earnhart. “He brings a deep understanding of how to build strong, relevant brands that connect with listeners and communities. His leadership and programming vision will continue to elevate our stations and deliver compelling content that reflects the energy, culture, and voice of Tucson.”

Stewart joins the Tucson market from iHeartMedia’s Spokane cluster, where he most recently served as the Senior Vice President of Programming. He will continue with some of those responsibilities in the Spokane market, including on-air at 98.9 (KKZX-FM) The Classic Rock Station, and mornings at Magic 98.9 (KYMG-FM) in Anchorage.

“iHeartMedia’s Tucson stations play a powerful role in people’s daily lives,” said Stewart. “These stations are trusted voices in Southern Arizona. My focus is to continue to deliver great music and engaging local content that reflects the spirit of this community and gives listeners something they can rely on every day.”
