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.

An internal investigation reveals that the oil giant’s own engineers misread data that contributed to the explosion aboard the Deepwater Horizon, a source familiar with BP’s probe told Bloomberg News.
As a result of the misinterpreted data on April 20, rig workers began replacing drilling fluid in the doomed well with seawater, which was too light to prevent natural gas from leaking into the well.

This led to the explosion, the report says, which killed 11 workers and ultimately spewed nearly 5 million barrels of oil into the Gulf of Mexico.
The internal probe is one of many looking into the causes for the disaster. Other companies, including Transocean, which owned the oil rig, and Halliburton, which was working on the well prior to the blast, have also come under scrutiny. However, both companies have pointed fingers back at BP.
