Alan Cross out @ CFNY

[Yeziknoradio]

Alan Cross and CFNY (Edge 102) have parted ways.

Note: The ongoing history of New Music will continue to air in reruns all summer.

Alan Cross is COOL.

Why there are no American affiliates of The Ongoing History of New Music is worthy of a Congressional hearing. That program is one of the very BEST you can ever find for an alternative rock station ever!......

Sad news. He gets aired on live 88.5 here in Ottawa on Saturday mornings and Sunday evenings. He's been at CFNY for years.

I'm guessing Live gets the same deal CFNY maintains. Reruns until Labor day.
Then... ???

If Corus feels they must let Alan go, they should let him (at least) carry on with the "Ongoing history" shows, even if they're no longer produced in house.

I'm not sure what ratings are like in Ottawa (or other places), but I do see strong following...
