In his new role, he adds operational oversight of Alternative “Alt 94.7 (https://www.audacy.com/alt947)” KKDO, Rhythmic CHR 102.5 KSFM (https://www.audacy.com/ksfm), CHR “106.5 The End (https://www.audacy.com/endonline)” KUDL, and Sports “ESPN 1320 (https://www.audacy.com/espn1320)” KIFM.
Prior to joining the cluster, Roberts most recently served as National Sales Manager for RCS. He has previously served as VP of Programming Communications & Special Projects for Cumulus Media & Westwood One from 2014 to 2019 and has programmed WRQQ Nashville, WIOT Toledo, WROV Roanoke and served as Operations Manager for WLUM Milwaukee and Citadel Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

In this role, Roberts will oversee content strategy, talent, operations and branding for the stations.
