Cox Media Group has signed a contract extension with Joe Rock to remain in his multi-market role across the company’s Classic Rock and Classic Hits stations. Rock will continue to host afternoons at 102.3 WBAB Babylon/95.3 WHFM Southampton NY, mornings at “106.7 The Eagle” KTKX San Antonio and “103.3 The Eagle” KJSR Tulsa, and middays at 98.9 WMMO Orlando. He will also produce and develop content for all of Cox’s Classic Hits websites.
CMG Radio SVP/Audience & Programming Chris Eagan stated, “Joe is a deeply talented radio host and producer, and I’m thrilled that he’ll be engaging our audiences and providing compelling content to our listeners for years to come.”
Rock joined WBAB in 2001 as evening host before moving to middays in 2019 and afternoons in 2021. He commented, “WBAB has felt like home since waking up to it from my clock radio all through
high school. Nothing makes me happier than sticking around with my family of listeners who have been with us for all these years, those just discovering us, and the most amazing team and company in the business.”
“Joe’s unparalleled dedication, talent, and ability to connect with our audience make him an indispensable part of WBAB’s success,” said Katelin Tinley, CMG-Radio’s Long Island V.P. and G.M. “His passion for Rock music and his engaging personality are driving forces behind his success. Here’s to many more years of rocking the airwaves with Joe!”
