High School Scholar Turned Media Prodigy, Mason Kern, Named Sports Correspondent for KOKS Radio to Deliver Recurring National 'Youth Sports Reports'


SAN DIEGO, CA--(Marketwired - Jul 16, 2015) - Since April 2015, Poway High School scholar and the Luxe List journalist, Mason Kern, has been serving as a Sports Correspondent for the KOKS Radio Show hosted by Bill Wardell -- a weekly program intended to bring parents, families and kids closer together. Mason's "Youth Sports Reports" on KOKS spotlight newsworthy current events and happenings in the world of high school, middle school and club sports around the U.S. as well as notable gadgets and gear for youth sports and fitness along with other trending items of interest to teens and tweens.

Mason's role as a Youth Sports Reporter with KOKS radio is in addition to his broadcast television work as a Teen Correspondent for XETV's San Diego Living -- an endeavor that commenced in November 2014 when Mason was a 15-year-old high school sophomore. Each month since, he appears live on the set of this popular lifestyle program in his own branded "Teen Trend Watchdog with Mason Kern" segment, through which he reports on hot product picks well-suited for school age kids.

Ever-motivated, in addition to his work with KOKS and XETV, Mason seeks to pick up additional work as a Youth Sports Correspondent for other radio and television stations throughout America.

"Since my passion and career ambition is to work as a television sports broadcaster and, in working toward that goal, to be accepted by a top-notch collegiate broadcast journalism program, I'm exceedingly thankful for the opportunities extended to me by both KOKS radio and XETV. The hands-on, real-world news reporting experience and skills I'm gaining as a bona fide working journalist in my high school years are invaluable as I work toward earning scholarships, internships, apprenticeships and gaining acceptance into a leading University for broadcast journalism in the Fall of 2017 -- just a few short years away. For now, I am eager to deliver informative segments that the audience will find useful and enjoy."

Mason, a perennial honor roll student, community volunteer and skilled athlete, is a member with San Diego Press Club and the National Society of High School Scholars (NSHSS).
