LOL!

My sister went to one of those sales a few years ago.

She actually was standing in line at 4:00AM in the freezing cold. Egad.

Thank you for explaining in more detail. It still seems like RKO is cutting off their nose to spite their face, but worse management decisions have been made. I would love to have been a fly on the wall when Howie confronted the lawyer who wrote such a contract. I hope RKO either decides to give him more support or else lets him go ahead of time. This is not the way a talented person should be forced to work.

LOL, funny thing is I turned the radio on around 3:30 this morning and heard Howie and woke right up.......Howie is not good for lulling people back to sleep! George Noory has a nice monotone soft voice, great for getting back to sleep, Howie can be hyper! I use this in case I have real difficulty getting back to sleep!

Correction: have been informed KABC didn’t drop CTC, it’s been on KFI all along

Sadly, WRKO will do neither, 1) they will NEVER let him out of his contract early... they need the money he brings in and 2) They will continue to rub Howies nose in it because they are ticked that he wants to bail from their onerous management and habitual hiring of felons to do their talk shows... Felon Finneran is a real life sleezy politician/convict and yet he has his own show giving advice and commentary on a daily basis... BLECH.

Yeah I was pretty sure Cunningham, like Drudge, was syndie by Premiere. Looked up on Wiki—yup. So now Premiere has divorced itself from RKO with the exception of Rush—and with Clear Channel registering “RushRadio1200.com” recently we know he will go too eventually

It began tonight. AM 1200 is running it and they have a station ID saying “WKOX Newton, Boston’s new home for Coast to Coast” (the call letters will switch to WXKS eventually).

On Wednesday (yesterday), a caller to Jay Severin, from Wellesley, said “a certain Conservative radio host, not you, pulled his daughter from a local Catholic school (because his daughter was guilty of bullying).” Severin defended Carr, without mentioning his name, by saying “I am ignorant of this situation...so I won’t comment.” Then he said “There is a big difference between verbal teasing and physical violence.” Not sure if Howie reads this thread, I know he references FR at times.
