Prior to that, Lindy was Operations Manager for iHeartMedia/Clear Channel's Atlanta stations which included PD duties for Country WUBL-FM (94.9 The Bull) and News/Talk WGST-AM and programming oversight for their cluster of six stations and three networks. He formerly held positions including Senior Director of Country Music Programming for SiriusXM Satellite Radio, OM/PD of WPOC/Baltimore and OM/PD for WTVR-AM & FM/Richmond, VA.

Cumulus Senior VP/Content and Programming Mike McVay said, "Scott and I have worked together and competed against one another. I am happy that this time we'll be working together. It's much easier than competing with him. We're excited to have him join us in Indianapolis at the legendary WFMS."

Lindy said, "It's an honor and humbling to join Cumulus Media and to work with John Dickey and Mike McVay. My thanks goes out to them for the opportunity to grab the programming reins of a station as legendary and as important to the Country radio format as WFMS."
