Rick Campanelli has left notes for news. He's the new Live Eye Reporter for City TV's Breakfast Television, after having served at Rogers-owned CHFI on the afternoon shift since March 2024. 

The new gig began on Monday, although he'll still be heard on 98.1 with an 80s and 90s Sunday show. 

So who gets the drive home gig on FI? It's another Rogers employee, in a game of music chairs. 

More details here.

Greg Burns, from sister station KiSS 92.5 (CKIS-FM) steps into the 4 – 7 p.m. ET time slot on CHFI, while Pina Sama takes over his 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. ET midday daypart on KiSS.

As a non morning TV watcher, but listener of these two stations, i don't love these moves.

Rick & Brooksy had a very good chemistry and the show didn't sound as new as it was.

Meanwhile, over at KiSS, I really liked Greg Burns. He made the station sound bigger and helped with the station's move to sound a little older.

Just my personal taste.

This is in no way a dig at Rick, but for someone who was never trained in media or news, just won a temp contest, he has had quite a lot of lives in media jobs.
