KFWB 980 AM The Beast gas announced Tom Lee as new Program Director for the Sports outlet.

A broadcast media exec and 20-year sports radio veteran, Lee is returning to L-A where he launched FOX Sports Radio in 2000, leading the programming team that ultimately created and developed the 24/7 national sports network. Lee has also programmed KESN 103.3 FM  in Dallas, Sports WIP 94.1 FM  in Philadelphia and KJR 950 AM in Seattle.

"Tom has achieved some of the highest ratings of all sports stations across the country," said Trustee for KFWB Asset Trust Diane Sutter. "Our listeners will benefit from Tom's invaluable skills in producing relevant content, top-notch talent and his experience in working with sports teams."

Lee has been directly involved at all levels with several franchises, including the Texas Rangers, Dallas Mavericks, the Philadelphia 76ers and Flyers, and the Seattle Supersonics. The Beast 980 is the radio home of the Los Angeles Clippers and LA Galaxy.

"Los Angeles sports fans are the greatest and perhaps the most underrated in America and their passion, the distinct L.A. attitude and our great sports teams will all be represented by The Beast 980," said Lee. "I'm very excited to get back to L.A. with the opportunity to program the only radio station uniquely built for home town fans."
