All Things Finneran

C

Guest
Convicted felon,Thomas Finneran was fired this evening from the New England Bio-Tech Council and his $400,000/yr. job.

Does this mean he is more or less of a candidate to be hired by WRKO and the Morning Felon In Charge at WRKO?

"Do not pass go; do not collect $200.00."
Go directly to WRKO???
 
He was hoping to keep that job & do WRKO as well...late last week newspaper articles said that THIS
week, Finneran would be meeting up with Entercom.
 
Maybe pressured to resign...

>>considerably less than the $400,000 remaining under his employment contract

He gets a quarter of that...probably told "we'll accept your letter of resignation, Tom..." if you know what I mean.
 
Wrong.

Convicted felon, Thomas Finneran RESIGNED from the New England Bio-Tech Council...

Only a WRKO manager would make this silly distinction.

It's not silly. There's a big difference between being fired from a position and walking away from it.
Legally, they're two different things.
Of course, one can GUESS that Finneran might have become perosna non grata at the Mass Biotech Council. But that's all it would be, conjecture.

Its the old ' I'm not fired, I resign' routine.

What an upside down world in which Julie "The Girl Executioner" Kahn lives. She fires a talk show host for correctly describing the physical appearance and sexual orientation of a candidate for governor with which that candidate does not disagree. Yet, Julie Girl is on the verge of hiring a convicted felon who got into trouble with the Feds because he is a racial bigot.

Up is down and down is up Mr. Swift !

KNOCK-KNOCK !!!! Anybody home ? The reason Finneran resigned from the BioTech Council, was so that he would NOT be fired when the board met that night. He took that option away from them ....BUT....he still got his severance..the remaining salary on his contract. Not a bad deal. Now on to ENTERCOM..that spends money like a drunken sailor on the things a drunken sailor would spend it on !!! ::)
 
the Drunken Sailor...that would be Peter Blute?

Finneran could be "Finn" on this board looking for some exposure.

...and once again, anyone who tries to post facts instead of fantasies on this board must work for WRKO. But then, those whose lot in life is to attack WRKO never let facts get in the way of their agenda.

You can just you like Ice-T's character Law & Order SVU
 
For he's a jolly good felon: Herald says announcement may come tomorrow @ 11 am from Entercom/WRKO

Today's Herald said that Finneran felt he would be ousted from the council so he resigned rather than waited to get fired. It was said he helped to lure business here but the idea of a felon on the council was just too
controversial. Oh, but a talk host job is fine.

I have an idea for a pairing... Sandy Tennant and Gidget Churchill. Whatever happened to Sandy? I haven't heard much since that boat ride with Peter Blute.
 
I think Tennant's out of politics.

By the way, via News Max: looks like a third talk host named Miller will be on the air soon. There's
Scott Allen (WRKO), Stephanie (temp. off air in Boston), and now...Dennis. Via Westwood One (see
news talk board). Maybe WTKK ("affiliate" for W1 here: Imus, O'Reilly, etc.) would carry it
 
It what one hope is a slam dunk challenge to WRKO's license Fox 25 is reporting that WRKO has hired Felon Finneran as a felonious talk show host on its station.

Julie Girl, have you no shame ?
 
My complaint letter to The Boston Red Sox will follow his hiring tomorrow.

If it doesn't "faze" WRKO, as the Herald reports, what about the Sox?
