Rob Creighton has joined Midwest Communications’ country station Hi-99 WTHI as the station’s new afternoon host. Creighton, who will be on air from 3 to 7 p.m. EST, also will lend his expertise to the station’s programming department.
Creighton announced the move on Facebook, writing, “I have joined Midwest Communications Hi-99 WTHI in Terre Haute as their afternoon talent! I’ll also be helping in the programming dept. I’ll be on 3-7 EST!”
Prior to joining WTHI, Creighton served as Director of Content for Townsquare Media in Sedalia, Missouri, while simultaneously hosting afternoons at AC My Mix 92.3. He departed Townsquare in April, ending a six-year tenure that included oversight of country station KXKX.
Creighton expressed his gratitude for the new role and a return to working alongside current operations manager Tim Huelsing.
“Thanks to the team in Terre Haute for making me feel welcome, and Tim Huelsing for thinking of me. Glad to be working for you again!,” he wrote.
Creighton’s move marks a return to on-air hosting after years in management and programming. His dual role at WTHI will allow him to influence both the station’s sound and on-air presentation, blending his programming experience with live talent.
