B97 Swirl on hiatus- Stevie G & T pot Suspended

S

SkilletFaceSam

What's the deal with this? I heard announcements by the company GM several times this afternoon about them being "suspended due to what happened yesterday". Anyone know????
 
Oldest stunt in radio. Honestly, do you think if they commited some kind of awful act that that Entercom would be announcing it? The stunt is over 20 years old. It gets talk but not like it did under it's oroginal conception, when there wasn't an internrt or other ways to check it out. The show is bad. This is probably a ploy to get people to listen when they "return" if you know what I'm saying. Hopefully they have fixed the show and the listeners that do return both old and new will have something different waiting for them.
 
This stunt is incredibly lame. stupid, overused and worn out. Nice thinking by Entercom. The PD, OM, GM and consultant involved in this worn out trickery should all be fired just for their stupidity.
 
See? They got you! That's the point of this stupid, worn-out promotion. You never get to find out what they did, because they didn't do anything! They just want to make fools out of their listeners by keeping to make them curious about something that never happened. Bush league radio at its finest.
 
Besides, if it's not on here or Dave Walker in the times Picayune doesn't have an article about it in the newspaper in one week, then I error to a stunt. As the Picayune has a habit of running somewhat timely articles (even if he gets some source from here)
 
That's just it . . . they didn't "get me".
I wasn't listening nor will I listen to what is probably the WORST waste of radio programming EVER in N.O.
The real news will be when they are gone . . . so let me know !
 
Truth revealed!

What really happened here is that Wilkie applied for the job and these guys (whoever they are) said that he couldn't finish a sentence without stammering. I have no idea where they got that ****-a-mamie idea from, but that's what they said. So, they are suspended. Some guy with a bad rug and a striped suit is supposed to be sitting in; that is, if he can catch a bus down from near Baton Rouge.
 
You people just refuse to "get it" and see how they tried to make hay because the two morning show morons wanted a few days off. They're making asses of you all by you even noticing this worn-out scam. After this insulting promotion the listeners who fell for it always feel used, as they should. This is kindergarten radio stunting, folks. Don't be stupid. The PD is an idiot.
 
The PD is an idiot.

for the first time in a long time the station is sounding better. think maybe it is because kaplain is out. just my opinion.
as far as this afternoon show is concerned i wish i would have heard the announcement for myself. i dont listen.....my kids do and thats the only time i hear the station. i think the show is silly. why the name SWIRL?????
