Jeff Harrison
Jeff Harrison is the Program Director and Afternoon Drive Air Personality for Majic 102.1. Jeff began his career in San Bernardino, California as an announcer for the local college station KVCR. After two years, Jeff parlayed this experience into an announcer job in Flint, Michigan at WAMM-FM. During his tenure there, Jeff won Billboard Magazine's Air Personality of the Year Award. After leaving Flint, Michigan, Jeff worked as an announcer at WHAT Radio in Philadelphia, and later WJPC Radio in Chicago. Five years later, Jeff left Chicago to work mornings at KDIA in San Francisco, where he also served as Program Director. Jeff worked in San Francisco for nine years, where under his direction as Program Director, KDIA achieved its highest Arbitron ratings ever. While also in California, Jeff spent two years at KBLX/KRE Radio in Berkley. There he also enjoyed ratings success as Program Director and Afternoon Air Personality. Jeff later joined KMJQ-FM/Majic 102.1 in Houston, Texas, where he stayed for six successful years. As the Afternoon Drive Personality, Jeff consistently earned top ratings within the station's Adult 25-54 demographic target, ranking #1 and #2 in the Arbitron ratings during that six-year period. Jeff then left Houston to join the staff of "The Wave", KTWV, 93.3-FM in San Francisco as the Music Director and Morning Air Personality - where he stayed for nearly two years. Missing Houston, Jeff rejoined the staff at KMJQ-FM/Majic 102.1 in 2003. Jeff feels the success of any radio station is due, in large part, to being in touch with the "pulse" of the community, creating an on-air format that is stimulating, and has enormous mass appeal. He attributes his success to being in tune with the needs and desires of the station’s listeners.

Thursday on a special “AC360°:” Three fishermen were the first to arrive on the scene after the explosion in the Gulf. They’ll share never-before-seen photos and video at 10 p.m. ET Thursday on CNN.
A highly anticipated test designed to measure pressure within BP’s ruptured Gulf of Mexico oil well began Thursday after a delay caused by leaking equipment.
A short time later, BP Senior Vice President Kent Wells announced that for the first time in months, no oil was flowing into the Gulf. This was part of the test, as BP measures pressure in the well to see how it’s holding. Higher pressure readings mean the well is containing the oil, while lower pressure means some is leaking out.
The data is being particularly closely scrutinized at six-hour intervals, so a key time will occur later Thursday night, after the first six hours.
The “well integrity” test could end after six hours, if the results are disappointing. But it could go on for 48 hours. The longer it goes, the better indications are that the well is holding with a custom-made sealing cap.
BP’s stock jumped on word that the oil flow had been cut off, as part of the test. The stock rose $2.74 a share, more than 7 percent, to close at $38.92.
