John McMullen (broadcaster)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John McMullen is a radio host, producer, and broadcaster. He has worked for Internet radio broadcasters, founded the GayBC Radio Network, a service for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered community, and operated Sirius Satellite Radio's LGBT radio offering, Sirius OutQ.
McMullen produced content for RealNetworks, hosting a radio talk show with co-host Chelle Milleur called Hangin' Out. Later, McMullen started the GayBC Radio Network, an Internet radio broadcaster. He assembled a collection of on-air talent that included Milleur, Michelangelo Signorile, Grethe Cammermeyer, Mike Webb, Jeff Calley, Romaine Patterson, Anthony Veneziano, Jeremy Hovies, Charlie Dyer, and McMullen himself.
Following the collapse of GayBC's advertising-supported business model, McMullen started another similar service called Gay Radio Network, which met a similar fate.
Fledgling satellite radio broadcaster Sirius Satellite Radio hired McMullen to direct and oversee operations for Sirius OutQ, the company's radio channel focused on the LGBT community. McMullen and many of the other people from GayBC Radio and Gay Radio Network formed the initial core of Sirius OutQ's programming. After becoming frustrated by Sirius' approach to programming on OutQ, McMullen left. He has since restarted the GayBC Radio Network.
