Bill Spadea, the high profile morning host at Townsquare Media news/talk “New Jersey 101.5” WKXW-FM Trenton, is making his stance known on mandatory vaccines and COVID testing. “I have drawn the line in the sand with the corporate leaders who own our radio station,” Spadea said in an opinion piece prominently posted on the station’s website. “I will not comply with the vaccine mandate and I will not submit to COVID testing.”
Townsquare Media has not yet publicly announced a vaccine mandate for its employees. But Spadea says the company has three choices when it comes to the federal mandate: “Ignore the immoral mandate, allow an exception for working at home, which I will do because it's important to continue speaking truth, or three — fire me. My wife and I are prepared for that possibility and will certainly take the fight to the next level if that's the case, but the bottom line is we should not be in this position at all.”
Spadea also voiced his views on the subject on the air.

What’s Bill Spadea’s FReeper name?
Do not cooperate. Make them fire you. If everyone did that this mandate nonsense would end.
He’s my son and because of his public status we keep that secret.
I will stand with my Patriot peers and not comply.
Let’s hope no one loses their job.
Although I doubted the Biden Admin. would “go there”, they did.
But even more I doubt it will stand. Might even get shot down before it starts.
It’s noteworthy these new mandates Biden wants impact only working Americans. Taxpayers, people building the economy, productive people.
But what mandates are there for Welfare recipients?
What about the people collecting unemployment with extra benefits that had jobs but quit due to Covid they claim.
Only working Americans are targeted!
That’s good to know. I’m a long time listener.
I’ve wondered about that myself. I’ve thought about if I became a public figure would I try to hide my ID on FR.
I don’t know. I see Jim Robinson doesn’t. Well, if he decides to let it all hang out, let me know. He sounds like he’s probably the kind of thoughtful guy I’d love to engage in discussions.
Everyone may not be in a position to take these moral stands, so we are grateful to those who do as it may lead to elimination of these unconstitutional mandates.
Well stand proud Pop, well done Sir...
Thank you. I appreciate that. Everybody has to make their own call about that.
But as for me, being here has been a privilege and very informative and I’ve not been reluctant to be publicly known here since 1998.
Thank you.
Wise decision.
About 20% of my posts would get me fired.
I have a good friend who is in that line of work also and feels as you do. And the percentage he saw against the mandate at the last union meeting was 50% to 75% said they will walk first. Said the union leaders and reps are trying to play both sides and remove themselves as the middlemen from the process.

Good on you for raising him right !
May the good Lord bless y’all !!
I do remember the days when Tony Snow used to mix it up here and we had David Horowitz do that Q&A deal.
I'm pretty sure there are public figures perusing this site on the down low. I remember hearing an Atlanta radio personality reference this site about 10 or so years ago...
Resist We Much
What we post is _very_ important.
Many very influential folks check in from time to time...many on the “down low”....
;-)
Howdy. Have we met?
