Changes at Emmis.

[RDO]

Here's the link to the story in the IBJ. They are shuffling personalities around. And not just on one station.

Very interesting! With Ed moving from Hank to WIBC, does this open the door for (Insert WFMS personality here) to join the Hank morning show? Justa thought.

With all of the former WFMS folks that have landed at Emmis, I'm still amazed that Darren Tandy hasn't made the cut. He'd be perfct doing evenings on Hank.

Good thought. It's possible.

A live night show costs $$. At last check nobody wants to spend any.

 

[Dingy Harry]

They are going to a one person morning show on Hank. They sure aren't going to add a live night person, though they are adding live hours to WIBC. I am surprised that the Fan afternoon show wasn't among the changes.

Everyone that picks up ESPN thinking it's God's gift to Sports drops it later (if they have anything else to use) becaue of the poor performance.

Charlie Morgan is either headed for the door or ready for a half pay cut. Deb Honeycutt too. Cumulus is noted for teh ability to mess up a one car funeral.

 

[RDO]

They are adding the live show to WFNI, not WIBC.

What makes you think Charlie is on the way out?

Also, the article did say that there is speculation that the afternoon show might change on The Fan.

 

[BobOnTheJob]

Charlie Morgan is either headed for the door

From Emmis?

Why would Morgan already be headed out the door at Emmis. and Who says Deb honeycutt is on her way out at WFMS. Darren Tandy is working for a station out i believe in Kansas right now,

I love Simpson in the afternoon, and will miss him there. But I didn't think Staysniak worked in the morning.

I haven't listened to Ed Wenck since his Real 97-1 days -- but I always liked listening to him, even all the way back to his Wank & Wild days on X103.

Let me correct that: Jim Denny. The best morning show FMS ever had was Charlie and Jim. Then second was Jim and , who was the guy, that went to Nashville????. I was thinking and typing which was not good. Just imagining Jim and Charlie, Charlie and Jim.... Jim's contract is one of those that has not yet been re-upped, reportedly. How much longer will the WFMS WTHR deal last? Mimi is still on the morning show.

Cumulus reportedly is either demanding pay cuts or demanding they hit the door when any contract expires. Will Jim take the cut or head elsewhere?

And here's our long distance question of the day:

Has Cumulus renewed ANY contract of ANY air personality in Indianapolis since taking over WFMS?

Darren Tandy is working for a station out i believe in Kansas right now,

It was a Nebraska station, but that was short lived. He's done radio sales in Columbus since then. Not sure what he's doing now, but if Emmis made the call, I think he might answer it.

 

[PTBoardOp94]

Next stop for Stever: Unemployment?

Apparently no one matches up well with Terri Stacey except for Pidge. ???

 

[Ann Tenna]

Has anyone ever stopped and said Hey maybe the problem isn't the partners she's had, maybe its her?

 

[Big Antenna]

Pidge is a bad-ass... he matches up well with anyone. Somebody PLEEEEASE put him back on the air!!

I hadn't heard he was back. Given the glut of people I am very surprised he didn't get the call to work Hank before Kurt Wallace. When I compare the 2 Darren has Country Heritage written all over him.
