HOT97 fires Miss Jones

By Tai Saint Louis
Hot 97 announced the cancellation of its long-running and often controversial show “Miss Jones in the Morning.” As early as July 21st, the show’s “AM Drive” time slot will now be split between two shows with a national following.
In a statement issued by the station’s parent company Emmis Communications, listeners in the New York Tri-State area tuning in at 5am will catch Cipha Sounds and Rosenberg, which currently airs on Saturday and Sunday mornings. With co-host Peter Rosenberg having gained his popularity conducting interviews on YouTube, the show continues to enjoy a strong online presence. That popularity is boosted by Cipha Sounds’ history in New York and status as an MTV personality.
