Ray Foley jumps ship to 98fm

Ray Foley, the voice of Today FM in the afternoon and the host of Take Me Out on TV3 has upped ships and left the nationally broadcasted station to settle in to The Morning Show on 98fm.

Foley replaces RTE personality Aidan Power and hot ginger Claire Solan, who departed the show a couple of weeks ago. CEO of 98fm Chris Doyle said of the appointment, “Breakfast is a prestigious slot on radio and we know Ray and JP will do a fantastic job and add big personality to 98fm. Ray reaches right into the core of our target audience and having an established name with huge experience and talent is a brilliant addition to 98FM.”

Foley himself spewed, “Like everyone else in Dublin, I can’t believe 98fm are giving me and JP the breakfast show! This show has been a dream of mine ever since I was a newsreader on 98fm a decade ago. I’ll miss my mates in Today FM but this prospect was just too tempting to turn down. Dublin is in for a rude awakening!”

Foley is a big get for 98fm, who were continually faltering in the ratings.
