Flint Radio: Tom Sumner Leaves WFNT

Tom Sumner
The Tom Sumner Program on Flint-based WFNT 1470 AM concluded earlier this month, Sumner said.

"There were some changes going on at WFNT and I was offered to be a part of it and declined," Sumner told mlive.com.

Sumner said his departure was amicable.

"There's no real controversy to it," Sumner said. "I wasn't fired, I didn't quit in a huff or anything," he said.

The program's 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. weekday slot is now filled with the syndicated Sean Hannity program.

Sumner had been on the air at WFNT for two years, where he hosted local guests to talk about Flint politics, culture and entertainment.

Before WFNT, Sumner hosted the program Off The KUF at Kettering University's student-run station, WKUF.

"I'm exploring those opportunities, there aren't any serious talks right now," he said.
