Hubbard Radio/Chicago has announced the promotion of Lisa Kosty to midday personality at AC WSHE 100.3 FM.

Kosty has been filling in from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. weekdays since last October, when Megan Reed went on extended medical leave battling cancer and preparing to undergo brain surgery.

Chicago Media writer Robert Feder reports Kosty joined the station as a weekend and fill-in host in 2014 after nine years as morning show producer and public-affairs show host at CBS Radio country WUSN 99.5 FM. She previously hosted mornings at WBYT in South Bend, Indiana.

“We’d like to thank Lisa Kosty for the wonderful work she has done filling in during middays on WSHE,” program director Marty Bender and Hubbard Radio senior vice president of programming Greg Solk wrote in a memo to staff Tuesday.

“We’d now like to congratulate her on being officially named the full-time midday host here at WSHE,” they wrote, adding: “You can now all skip over the always awkward introducing yourself part with a new hire and simply go congratulate her as you already known when she is here and where you can find her.”
