KNX has announced its new morning drive crew after the retirement of longtime anchor Dick Helton.
Mike Simpson will pair with Vicky Moore and Jennifer York to host LA’s Morning News.
“There’s something very special about waking up a region as large and dynamic as this one,” said Simpson. “It’s about getting people out the door and keeping them company on their commute with what they need to know. I’m beyond thrilled to start working with Vicky, Jen and the entire team. Here’s to multiple alarm clocks!”
Simpson joined KNX News in 2015, and has co-anchored the afternoon news. He also has a podcast called I’ve Got Questions with Mike Simpson.
Moore has hosted mornings on KNX since 2004, while Jennifer York has worked on the show for more than a decade.
“Mike, Vicky, and Jen are the perfect team to build upon the legacy of integrity, credibility, and humanity in our great shared experience – the morning commute in LA.,” said Audacy Southern California Regional President Jeff Federman. “We’d also like to extend our gratitude to Dick, as his decades of service to our communities are unrivaled.”
LA’s Morning News with Simpson, Moore, and York will be heard beginning Monday from 5:00-10:00 AM.
