Chris Ebbott is returning to CBS Los Angeles from Toronto to program Classic Hits “K-Earth 101” KRTH.
Ebbott has programmed Bell Media CHR “Virgin Radio 99.9” CKFM for the past four years and also programmed Classic Hits “Boom 97.3” CHBM prior to its sale to Newcap last year. Prior to heading to Toronto Ebbott spent seven years as OM of Variety Hits “93.1 Jack-FM” KCBS-FM and has also programmed Hot AC “Mix 95.7” WMWX Philadelphia and Alternative “101.5 The Zone” KZON Phoenix.
Ebbott replaces former KRTH and sister Urban AC “94.7 The Wave” KTWV PD Rick Thomas. Thomas transferred to New York to relaunch CHR 92.3 WNOW-FM as “92.3 Amp Radio“. A new PD has yet to be named for KTWV.
