iHeartMedia Cleveland’s 100.7 WMMS, Cleveland’s Rock Station, announced today a contract extension for “Rover’s Morning Glory.” The multi-year extension for Shane “Rover” French includes the continuation of his nationally syndicated morning show and development of additional audio and video content for iHeartMedia and Rover’s own company, via RMG TV. “Rover’s Morning Glory” will continue to broadcast weekday mornings from 100.7 WMMS.
“Rover is a once-in-a-generation talent who, fourteen years ago, saved the legendary Buzzard from extinction and began what will be the most successful run in the mornings at 100.7 WMMS, which is saying a lot,” said Keith Hotchkiss, President of iHeartMedia Cleveland. “His influence reaches far beyond Cleveland, with a giant audience on radio, streaming services, podcasts and video. Now he’ll expand upon his incredible run with iHeart for many years to come. Stay tuned for what’s next!”
“I’m thrilled to continue and expand my partnership with iHeartMedia, the undisputed leader in audio entertainment,” said Rover. “Thanks to this deal, ‘Rover’s Morning Glory’ will reach the incredible milestone of 25 years on the air in Cleveland, which is even more remarkable since I’m just 29 years old.”
