Kevin Cruise at U92 sent an e-mail this morning:

After 12 years at KUUU I am writing to inform you I am leaving U92, and Salt Lake City. I'd like to take this time to thank everyone whom I have worked so closely with over the years. I have had the chance to create amazing relationships and friendships during my time in Utah. U92 had only been around for one year when I moved here. I am blessed to have had the opportunity to be in many different positions with this radio station. Many of us worked long hours over the years to bring this station national significance, and we achieved that goal in 2010 thanks to our industry friends at FMQB when the station was awarded Rhythm Station of the Year. I have spent days with many of you while we worked to produce so many great concerts in Salt Lake. Thank you for working so hard and helping to create amazing events for this city. I will cherish these memories forever! I have accepted a programming and on-air position with Clear Channel Media & Entertainment inside a Top 10 market. Unfortunately, I cannot say exactly which station just yet but I'm sure you will find out soon, if you haven't already. Tomorrow will be my last day on air at U92. Thank you for being so great to work with, and for the lasting memories.
