Digio Jackson General Manager Kelly Crocker said, “We are building our business for continued success for decades to come and by adding one of the most respected journalists to our team, this helps solidify our position in our state.”
Apel followed, “I?m honored to be taking my decades of experience in journalism and joining forces with some of the most respected talent in the radio and media industry in Mississippi. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to grow in a way that keeps us authentic, local, and Mississippi-centric while enabling us to bring you the news and stories that you want to see and hear with much more momentum.” She continued, “The goal of Darkhorse Press has always been to bring you fair, unbiased news with integrity. I can?t even express how God?s hand has led this partnership and how unmistakeable He?s been throughout these talks. We look forward to many years, and we want to give Him all the glory for all He?s done to bring us to this point and beyond.”
Digio Operations Manager Jan Michaels added, “We were searching for more ways to serve our local community and by adding Therese and Darkhorse Press, we are accomplishing that goal. When most companies are replacing local talent with automation or national services, we are continuing to build our local team to better serve and be an even more trusted source of news, information and entertainment.”
