Bill Flynn gone from Rush radio

Never like to see ANYONE lose a job. I feel for Flynn.

But is this honestly a shock to anybody? They set this guy up to fail. A 25+ year soft rock DJ and then he's supposed to be a right wing talk show host....I notice their two news guys are still on board, they're blogs are still up.
 
Why is it that whenever this happens, the station NEVER posts it on a website, or is honest with the listeners. They don't owe the audience any or all the details, just that so and so are no longer here. The listeners deserve this..the talent will always be ok, and live to work another day, but it seems like such a disservice to the patrons of the station. It's always bugged me...man (or woman) up!!

I wonder how much longer this morning show will continue? Is there a replacement?

"America's Morning News," anyone? CC already runs it on the Winston-Salem Rush Radio station, I believe.
 
This morning it was a Rush rerun. There is an ad on all access for a new morning guy. I hate it for Bill. I always thought he was a nice guy and he had been there forever.
 
Why don't nobody put up no post about Squash in a box by itself?? :mad: The guy has talent and that's a good thing to have to get another gig and that is what I suspect he will do soon and close by ;) :D :D :D
 
It's a shame things like this happen, if "Rush Radio 94.5" is going to succeed in any form or fashion, you have
to carry a "live, local and interactive" morning show, if not it becomes another "automated" talk station.
 
From All Access:

RUSH RADIO 945, Greensboro, NC is looking for a morning drive star to take us to the next level! You can be the lead in to Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, and Sean Hannity.

[EDIT-Excerpt exceeds permitted content under Fair Use]
 
Bill just seemed to rattle off talking points that he got from Hannity. It was a very generic, boring show. He is much, much better at 99.5
 
On their last morning show, Bill and Pam were talking about someone who got fired from their job for speaking ill of their employer in public. Was that just a coincidence or....?
 
Bill was obviously set up to fail. He didn't have many friends in the building, especially the people that had to work directly with him. Bill had been mailing it in, but collecting huge paychecks for years on WMAG. The move to Rush Radio was simply a way for CC to get rid of that salary, but not go through the negative PR like they had with Aunt Eloise.
 
Doesn't surprise me that they're out. The program was horrible. Bill was probably ready to retire anyway. Too bad he had to leave radio from the hate station and be remembered that way. But, he made the decision to do it, now that's his legacy.
 
Atticus:

"Hate Radio" is kind of strong don't you think?
This is a radio board, not a political board.

Bill's legacy is forever tied to the glory years of Magic99. Maybe a toupee. Or maybe a really bad AM talk show.
But not "Hate".

Hate and Bill Flynn do not go together.

I think the decision was probably made FOR him...just like the decision to put that dreadful woman with him. I seriously doubt he had any input into THAT decision
