Chicago radio veterans Eddie & Jobo were released today by CBS Radio as the morning show hosts of WJMK-FM/104.3 K-Hits. The duo had been with the station since its inception in March of 2001.
WJMK-FM Program Director Todd Cavanah released a statement to Chicagoland Radio and Media indicating that the decision was strictly radio based. To put it plainly, the ratings were not where the company wanted them to be and Eddie and Jobo’s contracts were getting close to the point of renewal. The radio station felt it was time to go in a different direction with the morning show.
WJMK-FM/104.3 K-Hits has not hired any new hosts as of yet but the search is on. CBS Radio Chicago will be searching for a host/hosts that connect with the 60s-80s music being played, as well as connect with the audience.
