One of my all time favorite radio personalities is the great Lee Rodgers. At times Lee would relate the realities to the radio business. While one had a contract, one could be fired at almost any moment. The reasons for firing could vary widely, from lack of listeners and / or sponsors, to the whims of management and owners. Lee always made sure that he had a contact that stated just how long and how much he would get paid. He related past disputes where he was at home, not retired, but at home for months while someone paid him still, even though they had technically fired him (took him off the air). One of the last times he experienced this, I managed to exchange a few emails. He stated that yes, he still had a contract and “the lawyers are working it out.” I am sure he received what was in the contract.

This is probably what Carlson is doing

Lee Rodgers had the best name for President Clinton. Clinton was never ‘The Man From Hope (Arkansas). He was born in Hot Springs. Rodgers called him: The Hillbilly Whorehopper From Hot Springs.

It was sad when Lee passed.
Do you remember Lee’s rants regarding EVs?
