John O'Connell At WHFS

    Former West Palm Beach radio mainstay John O'Connell became program director at Sports Radio 98.7 The Fan WHFS-FM and CBS Sports Radio 1010 WHFS-AM in Tampa as of Tuesday. He was the operations manager of Palm Beach Broadcasting in West Palm Beach until his position was eliminated in September 2012.
    O'Connell had been involved in the West Palm Beach radio market since 1995 when he joined Infinity Broadcasting as an operations manager. The company was renamed CBS Radio in December 2005 where he worked as the operations manager of the entire cluster. O'Connell would become the program director for WCTQ-FM, WIRK-FM, WEAT-FM and WPBZ-FM. He later added on-air duties as the late morning host at WPBZ-FM. CBS Radio sold their West Palm Beach cluster of radio stations to Palm Beach Broadcasting in April 2012. O'Connell was a program director in Boston with stops at WEEI-AM, WBMX-FM and WXKS-FM before he moved to Florida.
