RJ Lane has been laid off from Cumulus Media in Washington as the company carries out a company-wide round of job cuts. According to Radio Ink. Lane had been with Cumulus for 15 years and previously served as Director of Sales and General Sales Manager before most recently working in a sales role for the Washington market.

The cuts are affecting Cumulus Media employees around the country and across several parts of the company. Radio Ink reports layoffs have hit sales and programming positions in multiple markets, while leadership positions have also been eliminated at the Cumulus Podcast Network.
