"Jeff’s experience, editorial judgment, and deep understanding of the Seattle market make him the right person to lead Northwest Newsradio’s news and programming."

Midday anchor Scott Carty will move to afternoon drive and pair with Aaron Wright in the daypart.

"45 years. I've done it. I've hit the checkered flag. And it feels great."

"I started listening when I was probably seven or eight years old. It was a little bit young to be a news junkie, but that's when I started and I knew that I always wanted to land a KIRO. It's legendary not just in Seattle, but across the country."

“This kind of talent doesn’t walk through the door every day.”

"Management was never the goal. I always considered myself a storyteller."

Calvert will replace Frank Lenzi, who departed Northwest Newsradio late last year to become the News Director at crosstown KIRO.

“Frank has a deep commitment to keeping audiences informed and connected. I’m confident he’ll be a great addition to our team.”

The Seattle-based stations will utilize news and traffic updates from Remote News Service.

O'Neil joins the station after previously working as an Executive Producer at Northwest Newsradio KNWN in Seattle.
