Best jocks of the decade on 5FM

23 Dec 2009

Channel24's survey, labelled Top Ten of the Noughties, ran from 1-9 December 2009 and invited South African music and movie fans to vote for their favourite stars, songs and shows across 11 categories.

In the category Best Radio Personality, 5FM's Gareth Cliff scooped the number one position. Other popular 5FM DJ's featured in the survey included DJ Fresh at number three, Sasha Martinengo at number seven and Grant and Anele in ninth position.

5FM marketing manager Justine Cullinan says, “The station is very proud to have featured so prominently in this particular survey. We attribute the ongoing success of our DJs to their individual personalities that the station allows to shine through, offering them as much freedom as licensing and brand strategy allows. The station is not a fan of time and temperature DJs, which resultantly infuses the brand with a unique and varied flavour through the individual DJs.”
