Charlotte broadcasting career  began at WMMS, 100.7FM, from intern to Promotions Coordinator. In 2004, joined WDJQ/Q92.5FM in Canton as Promotions Director. In 2006 Charlotte became co-host of the station’s morning drive show. The show achieved 1st place ratings. A contract dispute in 2012 resulted in DiFranco and her morning drive partner  resigning to form an Internet radio station.
