I'm sure he meant well but his conduct seems super unprofessional and he made the issue about himself ultimately. I guess he wanted to look at other opportunities too.

Several things that I read:

1. She wanted a different gig than a weekend slot.

2. She got offered a different opportunity elsewhere

3. She quit abruptly and the station didn’t acknowledge her departure immediately

KTLA is close to one of our studios. Beside Nutflix. I know the major players there. Meister should have kept his mouth shut as the company message does read as sour grapes in the wish you well’ category. I know workers there the past 10 years who tell me it’s a toxic place to work in.

This is why radio hosts find out they’re fired when they show up for their shift and their headphones are in a box in the hall.

KTLA is known as the “Progressive Network” and I remember when they covered up the death of their former anchor Chris Burrous who went to a sleazy motel after leaving work early, had gay sex with some dude from tinder, and had meth shoved up his butt..KTLA had a tribute for him for one freakin WEEK for a pervert!

Now that the dust has settled, the irony is that she is now working at her new job, while her Knight In Shining Armor is at home playing Fortnight, Minecraft and Call of Duty, until his unemployment checks get started. Oh, that’s right!
Since he ‘got fired’ he won’t be eligable for Unemp. Checks.

Sounds like somebody was in love, or lust.

I saw his speech when it happened - I also thought I heard Mark say that Sam Rubin, the entertainment reporter had said inappropriate things on air? Metzer then refused to repeat what Sam had said. Not sure if that inappropriateness was the cause for Lynette’s hastening her departure. If true, I would say KTLA took Sam’s side and thats what set Lynette free and set Mark off

I remember Lynette from when she was on a station in Denver.

Fox News fires hosts abruptly.... Below the host asked for a pay raise as she anchored 2 shows. She was fired instead. She settled for $15 million after taking Fox News to court.
