WLS-AM 890 has announced it has agreed to a contract extension with Ray Stevens to remain in morning drive on the Cumulus Chicago news/talk station.
Stevens returned to mornings at WLS last June after the station failed to come to a contract agreement with previous morning host, Steve Cochran.
“Ray has been instrumental in bringing Conservative content to morning drive on the Big 89,” said Program Director Stephanie Tichenor. “His energy, his experience, and his ability to deliver the local lens of the right conversation has been invaluable for our listeners. We look forward to the continued growth and success of 890 WLS with Ray Stevens in morning drive.”
“Excited to continue doing wake-ups in my hometown of Chicago,” said Stevens. “I love that WLS management always supports my wild ideas. Ideas that make our city better for every neighborhood and everybody!”
“We have a lot of work to do and we are doing it! Thanks to Marv Nyrun and Stephanie Tichenor for believing in what we do!” Stevens added.
The Ray Stevens Show airs on WLS-AM 890 from 6-9 AM.
