Damon Bruce returns to KNBR
Five years after he left KNBR to gain experience, former producer Damon Bruce returns to The Sports Leader, not as a producer but as the host of Sportsphone 680.
A graduate of Indiana University with a degree in broadcasting, Bruce spent one year at KNBR as a producer of KNBR talk shows and sporting events.
However, with a goal of being on the other side of the microphone, he left to gain experience, first as a host on Sports Overnight America, then with ESPN in Bristol, Connecticut, as a network sports anchor. While at ESPN, he also hosted Sportscenter for ESPN International. He later was a fill-in host on Fox Sports Radio and Sporting News Radio.
His most recent assignment was full-time morning anchor at WOWO news talk radio in Fort Wayne, Indiana. But his goal was always to return to KNBR. “It’s an honor to be back in the studios where I started my broadcasting career five years ago,” says Bruce. “Covering legendary franchises like the Giants, 49ers and Warriors is an incredible opportunity and a dream come true.”
Tony Salvadore, KNBR Senior Vice President and Market Manager, is impressed with his credentials and his desire to make Sportsphone 680 a show that belongs as much to the listeners as to the host. “This is a very bright, very knowledgeable individual who has paid his dues and we welcome him back to KNBR."
