Industry insiders claim veteran radio host Tom Joyner is being phased out to coincide with President Obama's exit from the White House…
Last night The Daily Mail quoted anonymous sources who claimed plans were in place to phase out The Tom Joyner Morning Show by the end of 2016 and that the whole thing was orchestrated in a back door deal by Tom's one time best friend and business partner David Kantor.
This morning Reach Media responded to the rumors,
"Any stories that suggest major changes to the Tom Joyner Morning Show are inaccurate.
Tom Joyner is under contract with Reach Media until the end of 2017. We expect that Reach will continue to syndicate Tom’s show beyond that date and for as long as he would like to be on the air.
There has always been refinements and updates to the show as well as market changes due to local conditions and there may be some in the future; but Tom Joyner and the Tom Joyner Morning show continues to be strong and is a daily Party with a Purpose®.
Reach is committed to Tom Joyner for the long term who remains committed to radio, his audience and the future."
