Best of luck to him.
It was obvious that going back home was his heart's desire.

Come on now...if you are working in sales...I agree, but the programming people are fun...except DP
Gotta add TB to the DP. He's a piece of work too. KRC sounds like the automation was set up to sound like a hatchet chopping stuff off. Perfect, considering the hatchet man he is. Other than those two yahoos (and a couple of SVPs and programming demons at Premiere outside of the market), the rest of the programming folks and talent at CC Cincy are pros (what's left of 'em).

Someone must have been fired by TB. I have NEVER heard anything bad about TB. From what I gather, he is one of the easiest PD's to work for. Someone has no facts to create that opinion.
Re: KRC
TB was involved with a station I ran before I ran it. He continued to make his presence known by listening and critiquing it negatively behind our backs to Covington, without so much as a courtesy call to us. We were in a market where we did not have the benefit of a full local staff, yet we were being called on the carpet for tiny middle-of-the-night errors that were one-time events...things that happen on a very regular basis today on WKRC, now that his staff has been cut to the bone (as ours had been years ago). I call that being a political hamster...maybe not as big a political hamster as Sean, but a politico and a member of the rodent family nonetheless.
As for KRC's smoothness, just for the heck of it, earlier this month I started writing down the number of errors I heard in a day of listening. I filled a single spaced page in less than six hours. One example: 3/12/2007, 6:07pm: No Savage... Jerry Doyle instead...for twenty minutes (sat channel was tuned incorrectly). Stopset at :17 was overridden by network for more than a minute, followed by a full minute of dead air. (This was PM drive, folks). And that's just one event. I have dozens more documented. They're a train wreck in progress, in much the same way 1530/1360 was during the Air America days.
At our house, we've taken to calling Rush Limbaugh simply "Imbaugh", thanks to the overstuffing of stopsets combined with the hatchet-chop local-to-network switching. "Blah-blah-blah, on 55KRC." (switch) "Imbaugh, with talent on loan from Gawda..."
Guess TB knows how it feels now, having to do everything without any decent help. Makes it easier to be an "easy-going PD" to the help when there ain't any help to be easy-going to.
