Title Change:
Please change to “WMAL” and not “WMMAL”.
Thank you.
Boy, upper management’s just making all KINDS of friends. They’re expensive??? Gee, I wonder why? I dunno, maybe because they’re very good at what they do? Sigh...
Prediction: they’ll replace Grandy & Andy with Joe Scarboro (barf).
Wow!
Well, that’ll be the end of WMAL-—finally. And I just heard Andy chuckling earlier in the week that in his current line of work, he could be out of a job anytime.
Oh well. The FM classic stations will be on my dial again.
The I95 Moving Parking Lot will not be the same without Grandy and Andy. I’d sure love to see WMAL’s rating book after this brillant move goes down.
1. Load gun.
2. Take careful aim at a foot.
3. Squeeze trigger.
4. Repeat Steps 13 for other foot.
OH NOOOOOOO
It figures they’d keep Nehman; he’s the liberal one.
Madness. Did they learn nothing from the Chris Plante debacle?
Back to lisenting to CDs in the morning. I couldn’t stand that d@mn liberal they had on for a while. Nehman isn’t wet behind the ears yet and isn’t strong enough to hold me as a listener. Nehman must have an in with somebody because he’s just dry — no great wit, no great insight — nada. I’ll miss Grandy and Andy terribly.
Die, corporate scum.
Maryland “Freak State” PING!
Hard to believe. They are an absolute Washington institution. Think of the Freedom of Speech forum last Saturday. One of the most perfect days of the year in DC, yet hundreds of fans congregated in a dark hotel ballroom to see/hear them and Christ Plante. Hopefully, management wakes up before it screws up.
Fred should move back to Iowa and run for Governor. Or US Senate to replace DungHeap Harkin.
Management is screwing up WMAL just the way they destroyed WABC in NY. These jackasses have no business being in the radio station business. Sad...
Paul Duckworth USED to be the GM at KVI 570 in Seattle, which used to be Kirby Wilbur’s station. He screwed around with the lineup when he was at KVI as well. Not smart.
Due to my commute, I never am able to listen to my favorites (Plante, Rush, Levin). The only WMAL personalities I was able to catch were Grandy & Andy (Nehman is a useless liberal).
I'll continue to download Rush & Levin to my MP3 player...
Whoa.
Back to playing music CDs on my drive to work.
Shame.
I'm calling BS on this. I think it is part of a plot to dismantle conservative talk-radio.
Farid Suleman, the CEO of Citadel Broadcasting, abruptly fired popular KSFO morning host Lee Rodgers, apparently because he was highly paid, but likely because of his anti-Muslim commentary.
Now Suleman is firing the talent at this station.
I detailed this strategy on this post in 2008, with embedded links to earlier posts on the matter.
