Crook & Chase, McCoy To Radio Hall

The Crook & Chase Countdown – Lorianne Crook & Charlie Chase – and KVST/Conroe, TX middayer Mary McCoy will represent Country radio as they are inducted into the Radio Hall of Fame Sept. 19 at the Omni Nashville Hotel. Also inducted that evening will be Lee Harris, Phil Hendrie, Jaime Jarrin, Kraig Kitchin, Barry Mayo and Matt Siegel. Six inductees were elected by a 900-person industry panel, with two selected by the nominating committee. "This class, like the ones before it, exemplifies the highest standards of excellence that radio broadcasters have upheld throughout radio’s rich history, making this medium so special to generations of listeners," says Radio Hall of Fame Co-Chair Dennis Green. Adds Museum of Broadcast Communications Chair David Plier, "I am grateful to the members of the Nominating Committee for presenting a diverse and inclusive group of nominees again this year for industry consideration."
