Radio veteran Scott Jameson has been named to the position of Brand Manager for Audacy’s 105.7 The Fan in Baltimore. Most recently, Jameson was Vice President of National Content for Beasley Media, a position he held since 2020. Prior to that, Jameson oversaw Cumulus’ 33 Classic Rock stations.
“We are excited to welcome Scott to the 105.7 The Fan family. His impressive track record in radio programming and community engagement will be instrumental in driving our brand forward,” said Tracy Brandys, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Audacy Baltimore in a release. “Scott’s passion for sports and deep understanding of the media landscape make him the perfect fit to lead our team as we continue to deliver top-notch content to our listeners.”
Jameson has not previously held a Program Director position in sports radio, however, is known throughout the industry as a strong talent coach in all formats, including sports, having worked with the likes of Tony Siragusa and Michele Tafoya. Earlier in his career, he served as Executive Producer of the Atlanta Falcons Radio Network and was a producer for the Indianapolis Colts Radio Network.
“Audacy is the industry leader in sports audio, so I’m looking forward joining the team of content creators and talk talent at 105.7 The Fan in Baltimore. We’ll build on our passionate sports community with fun, energy and a rock-n-roll attitude. Game On. Thanks to Tracy Brandys, Mark Hannon and Jeff Sottolano. Special thanks to Mike Thomas and Chris Oliviero for their support.” said Jameson.
Jameson replaces Chuck Sapienza, who mutually agreed to part ways with Audacy Baltimore at the end of the year, an announcement which was made in late November. Sapienza had been with the station since 2017.
Jameson will inherit a station which has consistently produced strong ratings, often finishing 1st in the market among Men 25-54. 105.7 The Fan’s lineup consists of The Big Bad Morning Show, Vinny & Haynie, and Inside Access with Jason LaCanfora and Ken Weinman.
Jacobs Media president Fred Jacobs said this previously about Jameson, “Programmers tend to come in two different varieties – analytics and creatives. Scott is one of those rare leaders with a great balance in both spheres. Add to that his collaborative skills, getting the most out of talent and his “think big” mindset, and you’ve got a gem of a brand manager.”
