'BZ pulling for Sullivan: to undergo brain surgery

Was mentioned tonight on WBZ. All at the station are pulling for him.

"For the fourth time in less than three years, WBZ-AM talk radio host Paul Sullivan is set to undergo brain surgery today in his brave battle against cancer. Doctors at Massachusetts General Hospital plan to remove a hemorrhaging, cancerous tumor from his brain during a nearly five-hour procedure. Sullivan, 49, said doctors “are revisiting one of the same areas they have had trouble stabilizing. This is just a bump in the road,” Sullivan said yesterday.
 
Oh, my God, what is it about that station. I always think of the other Kennedy, who hosted eons ago, who passed on due to cancer.
 
Hopefully Paul Sullivan will recover, but if is unable to do his show after surgery, would BZ go to news until midnight?
 
Yes if Sully had to retire due to health issues they could find someone and it probably would be local not syndie.
Here is where I would say, "Dennis Miller if they do go syndie" (the Westwood One/CBS connection...)
'BZ does well enough that they could afford (and would want to do) someone local rather than a syndie host
(or even, as some stations do, a simulcast of CNN Headline News or whatever).
