Egypt Sherrod to V-103 for Middays

R

RoddyFreeman

All of the radio sites are reporting that Egypt Sherrod will join V-103 in middays. She will start on March 19. Ramona Debreaux will move back to weekends.

This seems like a coup for V-103 since Sherrod is nationally known. She hosts the show Property Virgins on HGTV and has done radio in Baltimore, Philadelphia and New York.
 
Egypt is most certainly a stellar pickup, but I feel horribly for Ramona, who definitely earned a full-time shift and is getting shoved to the corner once again after what, a year?

I also think it's amazing that V-103's personalities have become so inconsistent in recent years - particularly middays - yet their numbers haven't struggled one bit. Whether that's a "good" or "bad" amazing, you decide.
 
I feel bad for Ramona also. The worst thing about moving away from full-time is the possible loss of lucrative endorsements.

I do wish V-103 would put someone on The Quiet Storm late at night. Terry Bello would be the most logical.
 
Hmm, how long will this last? With her having a show on HGTV, will she be live here or voicetracked. BTW, I didn't know so many people actually hate Frank & Wanda's Morning Show according to what I read on Rodney Ho's blog.
 
And the pin drops, this was an interesting move by Rouse and Caffety. They did do Ramona wrong and it will be a 'wait-and-see' move with this move. Egypt is the new host of HGTV's "Property Virgins" and that show is all over the nation and regularly filming episodes throughout the year. I know of Egypt, but let Wendy Williams say what she feels about her when they were both at WBLS, BOY! I don't have a good feeling about this one, but I'll reserve my judgement of this situation...

I'll say this, you guys might hear Terry Bello on 'filling-in' during the middays more often than you realize. However, after noticing his song choices during the past week, he might help keep the ratings up because they are definitely competing with Kiss and Majic. Ramona might be back in the midday spot sooner than you guys realize, and I believe even she even knows this one because the woman is very talented.

Management is stirring the pot, but I'm going to sit and just watch. At least the musical selection is on point...
