From the excellent DCRTV site:
Where was all-news WTOP programmer Jim Farley (right) last week? In Seattle. And what do we hear this week? That city's news talker KIRO, which is owned by Bonneville, has inked a contract extension with the Seattle Seahawks. Hmmm. DCRTV wonders if Farley's going to be gunning for the Washington Redskins for Bonneville's WTOP or its rumored new post Washington Post Radio talker for next year? Hmmm, again. Farley does national news and talk radio consulting for Salt Lake City's Bonneville. A Bonneville source tells us that Farley was asked to "help out" by Seattle radio management. "Landing the Seahawks was the hard and creative work of Bonneville Seattle Market Manager Scott Sutherland and PDs Rod Arquette and Dave Logan," we're told......
RJ adds: For those who may not know, Jim is one of the best in the biz. He ran the NBC Radio Network during some of its best days in the early 80's, and has turned down bigger gigs to stay at WTOP. When he talks, it's a really good idea to listen.
