Last Shot At Spencer Here?

Umm, no...he IS a friend of Gene Burns. You may not like him, but he is.
It doesn't mean Mr. Burns likes and agrees with everything Spencer does on the air. It means that he's a mentor of Spencer's and likes the guy. The association is genuine...if you think it means Spencer should be Gene Burns Jr., that's your problem, not his. Complex thoughts don't seem to go well on this board.
For that matter, I'm a friend of Spencer's, and have been for a number of years. I don't agree with him all or even most of the time, but off the air, he is a genuine guy. I can't speak for the guy, but I'm pretty sure Gene Burns would agree about that.
And that's my last reply on the topic here, as it does indeed appear he's off the WRKO schedule and officially out of the Boston radio market. He's now doing weekday afternoons (2-5 PM ET) on the same XM Satellite Radio channel that carries FOX News' syndicated radio hosts.
I'll just remind folks who spent inordinate amounts of time on this board obsessing over Spencer's three hour Sunday afternoon show that I mentioned new management could very well make changes that wouldn't include him, and that's what just happened.
