WHAM Radio Fires Long Time Employee Over Controversial Blog

Doesn't matter. Wegmans gets PLENTY of great pub for the area annually, and even if they're not a big user of radio, they carry a lot of weight in the community. They are LOVED by people. Dissing them is bad for business, either directly, or peripherally from other advertisers who share their constituency. It's all about knowing the local landscape.

Even this outsider knows Wegmans is LOVED around Upstate, and that they consistently show up on national "best companies to work for" lists.

And Jerry Del Colliano believes the CC firings will be more like Cumulus, which is to say...regularly.

Have to wonder about the 500 openings...EEOC maybe? I looked at the list, I don't doubt its existence...sometimes I wonder if the purge is to rid the company of card-readers and talent they consider overpaid? IDK...only guessing.
 
Nothin' keeps the troops noses to the grindstone like a few people around them getting whacked and/or replaced by somebody who will work cheaper.

No more calls! We have a winner.

I recently attended a job-seekers seminar at Strayer University, and one of the nuggets presented was that over 95% of jobs posted publicly anywhere - classifieds, job boards, company websites - are not actually open, but are posted to satisfy some legal requirement. The bulk of postings are jobs for which the employer has already identified a hire, but needs to cross T's and dot I's for EEO. I suspect that, in the case of the big radio companies, some of the openings don't exist at all, but are padding for the public file to demonstrate outreach.
