I'm out of town with limited Internet access. Fortunately, thanks to some observant readers, I'm able to post a quick update.
A Radio-Info.com poster, observed that Jimmy Baron's blog post about a "huge phone call" coincides with a recent lineup opening at 106.9 FreeFM, the station where Jimmy's been auditioning. Meanwhile, 99X is certainly giving the appearance of bad faith with its listeners and advertisers as it continues to list Jimmy as a cast member, despite the fact that Baron's contract expired a week ago today and sources close to the show indicate that little progress have been made in negotiations.
Meanwhile, Wally has again been silenced. Sources inside 99X suggest that Wally "pissed off the new owners" with his opinions and they don't appreciate his sense of humor. So why no mention on 99X about this change? "The one thing people fear here more than competition is the truth. Case in point Barnes is leaving to be a movie star, Jimmy is just out today, to name a few."
So what do you do after dismantling a great morning show? You give yourself a raise.
