Fed Med has been dropping talent like most people change underwear, so yeah, she was probably blown out. Just like many others at Fed Med in the last year and a half. But you never know, perhaps she went on to do something else. It would be a nice change of story if that were the case.
 
As I said (implied), it seems strange that a station with a new news format would drop a veteran news person. Into what "plan" does that not fit? (Corporate-speak discouraged.)

I don't know.

Maybe more of a "TV" newsperson as opposed to radio.

A trusted friend told me she left (her choice). Her moving on was unrelated to the new radio format.
 
We will see as soon as the Spring book comes out. What I do know is that the switching of WAORs frequency has not been a popular one primarily because of the less powerful signal and the location of the transmitter.
AORs loss of Tommy & The Bartender/gaining of Bob & Tom is also another unpopular one.
The loss of Power 95.7 ranks third. Also, the Chevy Avalanche that was used for promoting Power is now carrying graphics promoting "MNC 95.3".
 
I can understand why those north of South Bend are unhappy with the WAOR frequency swap...however we here in Fulton County are glad we can now hear WAOR. :)

Actually, we won't really see the truth when the Spring Book comes out. Since the changes all happened on 5/10, the book was already 1/2 way over. It will be January 2011 before we can really get a true read on how things have shaken out.

I believe revenue matters more than ratings, anyway.

While I do agree that some sleep better "poor" but "knowing they're #1 in the Arbitron's," that #1 rating buys no food, pays no rent, and fuels no automobiles.
