Promotional Considerations

> the Entercom stations now??
One wonders if the changes in the promotions staff have anything to do with Spitzer's investigation.
If so, is this an example of how Entercom is going to react to Spitzer's office? If so, you'd best stand far back from the curb when you see the bus coming, and keep in mind that "I've got your back" may have a whole new meaning...

Re: Promotional Considerations
You guys and your daily "Spitzer conspiracy theroies" make me laugh. What exactly would Tina Chaudry and Jeff Surdej have to do with his investigation of "corporate" Entercom LOL !?! They work in PROMOTIONS, not Programming.
Tina left cause she was sick of the typical radio office politics. You know, putting out a maximum effort, yet getting minimal results. Not to mention she simply had a much better job offer. Same with Jeff, he was offered an amazing job elsewhere, was tired of his best efforts being (BLEEP) on so he left.
Why is everything on this board a conspiracy LOL ?!? Are you guys really that bored ?

And promotions people NEVER get anything "free" from the record companies in return for overseeing a promotion? No little "gifts" that Spitzer might think ought to show up on an income tax statement?
> Tina ... simply had a much better job offer. Same with Jeff,

Gee, I'm glad to hear that both Tina & Jeff moved on to bigger and better things. I'm certainly aware that the life of a radio promotions person can be challenging, to say the least.

Re: Promotional Considerations
Actually no, I've NEVER heard of a Promotions staff member being put under the microscope during a payola investigation, and I can assure you that both Tina and Jeff won't be either.
I've been in Radio for 12 years, and I've NEVER heard of that happening in this market...ever.

Congrats on enduring for 12 years!
It's been my experience, observationally speaking, that radio promotions people do in fact get freebies. In some companies, those freebies are sizeable. In most cases it's nothing more than a few free bottles of Windex and a couple of cases of Maxwell House coffee. My observations are not an indictment of the two individuals previously mentioned, simply a general observation made over the (20+) years that I was (past tense) in the business.
As to your assurances of investigation by Spitzer, one can only hope you're correct. I took Roxalot's post to imply that at Entercom these days, NOTHING would surprise anybody who works in the business or those who post on the board, especially since we know there are certain suits at E'com who have a reputation for throwing others in front of the bus. No names need be mentioned.
It's not that we readers and posters are conspiracy theorists as much as we're skeptics, perhaps cynics. Many of us see the glass as being half full but not drinking from it because it just might be half full of clean, clear water, but vinegar.
Best wishes to those who left the service of Entercom and went on to bigger and better things.

Re: Promotional Considerations
I did find out from someone at Entercom that Jeff Surdej went back to Ingram Micro. Maybe he went back to that little sales cubicle. I havent heard that Tina nailed down a job with any company. She may have but I just havent heard where. Let's just hope she's doing fine.
