The cause of death is not known at this time. Doyle starred in Babylon 5 and appeared in other TV shows before getting into radio as a conservative host. Rusty Humphries wrote on Doyle’s Facebook page, “Jerry was a fantastic talk show host, who through his passions and sense of humor, was able to connect with people on a very personal level. I’m deeply saddened by this and held Jerry in high regard as a professional and as a personal friend.”
The show was distributed by Talk Radio Network Enterprises (“TRNE”) and America’s Talk Network (“ATN”). TRNE CEO Mark Masters said, “I am stunned and saddened by the news of Jerry’s sudden death. He was a dear friend and a prince of a human being. We have worked together for the last 12 years, and no host was more loyal at my side. ATN and TRNE will continue to produce and distribute the Jerry Doyle Show to our affiliate stations using guest hosts while we honor Jerry and focus on celebrating his remarkable life. We will defer decisions and announcements on the necessary permanent programming changes for the show until after this appropriate interval to remember, and mourn, our friend Jerry Doyle.”
