After first taking Jaime Allman off the air indefinitely today, Entercom has parted ways with the morning host of “FM NewsTalk 97.1” KFTK-FM Florissant/St. Louis MO.
Entercom VP/Corporate Communications Esther Mireya-Tejeda told Buzzfeed that “After looking into the matter we have decided that Allman will no longer be a member of KFTK-FM and his show has been canceled, effective immediately. We have parted ways.” We have confirmed with Ms. Mireya-Tejeda that Allman has been terminated from the company.
Original Report 4/10: As Entercom deals with the fall-out created by a tweet by yet-to-debut “97.3 The Machine” KEGY San Diego morning host Kevin Klein, another social media induced issue has taken “FM NewsTalk 97.1” KFTK-FM Florissant/St. Louis MO morning host Jaime Allman off the air.
In late March, Allman tweeted that “I’ve been getting ready to ram a hot poker up David Hogg’s ass” directed at the Parkland High School shooting survivor who has become one of the biggest advocates of gun control legislation. The subsequent advertiser backlash has led to Sinclair Broadcasting to cancel Allman’s weekly television show on KDNL St. Louis and accept his resignation from the station. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that Allman has been taken off the air at KFTK with the Associated Press adding that he is suspended while the company “looks into the matter.”
Entercom is in the process of acquiring KFTK-FM and CHR “Now 96.3” KNOU St. Louis from Emmis as it currently operates the stations via LMA.
An absolutely STUPID thing to say.
I’d be willing to bet if some liberal talker substituted “Trump” for “Hogg”, they’d still have a job.
Meanwhile in the San Diego case, the station’s new morning host has yet to do his show—and has been deleted from the website—after advertising “Jump...to a new morning radio show”, with a picture of a bridge that has been used for hundreds of suicides (the host also is being sued by the owner of the pic he used)

"...David Hogg..."
He’s cashing in on his 15 minutes.
Might take some of the excitement
out of the act of it was the red
hot barrel of an AR-15.
Here in Maine the other day, the Mayor of the City of Waterville sent a tweet to David Hog Wash in which he told little Davie to “Eat it.”
This was in regards to the Laura Ingram advertiser “backlash.”
In response, a group of gray-haired fugly moonbats in Waterville, Maine are circulating a petition to recall the mayor, a white man who looks like a twenty-something.
The mayor is defiant and fighting back. A+.
"...told little Davie to Eat It..."
But so was the statement that Hogg was a shooting survivor.
you must not have heard, mommy said he’s taking a ‘skip year’ to ‘participate in political elections’ this summer.
He’ll either run for office or wind up like Dirk Diggler in “Boogie Nights”.
"...taking a skip year..."
That said, we've been suffering the loudmouth insufferable Jamie Allman for more than a decade. The man is a tool, he's offensive, and his "conservative" bona fides were nothing more than a shtick he used to cash in on the conservative radio wave. He's managed to get himself fired from television channel 4 as a reporter, from the Archdiocese as a spokesman for the bishop, and now he's been canned by both the new owners of KFTK and the local ABC affiliate.
True colors always shine through. Good riddance to fake conservative trash. Now if we can just get rid of the other phony loudmouth Mark Cox maybe we can get some real enlightened conservative talk on our airwaves.
Love it!
I’d be willing to bet if some liberal talker substituted “Trump” for “Hogg”, they’d still have a job.

Yes and a cushy bonus too boot.

David Hogg needs to know that in life, there will be those that he has ticked off with his stupid comments and fake survivor story.
