Get Ready For AP Times Four Dothan

Z

zuzu petals

The Empress of the crumbling tower has issued an order for a special box to be installed that will send her sound from the WTVY broadcast room to the other four Trajic stations.
Supposedly in the event of bad weather or other whims, she can activate this and broadcast on all 5 stations at once.
If you love 12 hours of her every time the wind blows....celebrate!!!
It will be times four soon.
 
Love the name and self description Zulu. I'm surprised that she doesn't insist on a laptop link from the Wicksburg Mansion so that she can do it all from home on all five stations.

And Underqueen cries, "Here I am to save the day!".
 
Thats funny I work here and I have not heard anything about this magical box. :-\ But I wouldn't be suprise if it does happen. Well at least we will all be informed when bad weather blows in.
 
This magical box is probably kept under wraps so the servants don't whine and cry and revolt against the queen. I do apologize in advance but I am sorry Stephano that you work there!

The Queen loves weather and being the center of attention. Sometimes the information she gives out is totally inaccurate and causes a panic **gas** scare (For some reason Hurricane Ivan rings a bell). Then you have owners of gas stations calling the competion asking them to correct her and the Management on the 7th floor to tame her. So how informed will you be if its incorrect?

I hope the box is all a Magical hoax...
 
So basically bad weather is gonna break out and then the Queen is going to break in on all five stations to give the weather and of course she's gonna mention TVY at least 3 times in the process..yeah this is brilliant...after all The Queen is the only person who is capable of reading the weather forecast off the internet or who is able to repeat what the EAS is saying or even to comprehend a television weather forecast..THANK GOD FOR AMIE POLLARD, FOR WITHOUT HER WE SHOULD ALL DIE ;D You know..seriously just get it over with all ready and simulcast 95.5 on ALL FIVE stations :'(

P.S. OMG what is your obsession with the market rank?

P.S.S.-StephanO man..tread softly or the Queen will have your head..just looking out for ya ;D
 
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! That is bull****!!!! Tell me this, Is there anyone in that building that can't read??

So they have EAS, the internet, Oscar downstairs, But Amy thinks she is the only one who can say "TAKE COVER THE STORM IS COMING YOUR WAY"

She needs to get a grip, she is a O.K morning host, (not the best).

Being OVERPAID makes you lucky, not the know all to end all,

When i wonder why people are Jump'n left and right, You add her in the mix with the worst COO ever jeff storey, that place is going down in a blaze.

Here is my fix, FIRE AMY SAVE $$$$$ ABOUT 70 GRAND, FIRE JEFF STOREY $$$ EVEN MORE,WHAT A WAIST, AND ALL THAT JEFF BROUGHT WITH HIM, HIRE BACK THE PEOPLE THAT JUMPED, BY GIVING THE MONEY FROM AMY AND JEFF TO INTISE THE OTHERS, RUN IT LIKE A LOCAL CLUSTER LIKE IT WAS FOR A LITTLE WHILE.= $$$$$$$$ BACK TO THE CLUSTER.
 
Meh....We already have one of those......(Haven't really used it much though.....Maybe 2-3 times the past few years....We try to keep the alerts staffed whenever possible....)

Nevertheless, it does help when you are on weekends and do not have to go to all the stations and broadcast each of the warnings.....Just as long as you let the people know who you are and that you are concerned for their safety. I have found that it works everytime....

Forget about the EAS, just get rid of it.

The problem she will use it for evil!!!! to promote herself and screw everyone else.

If anyone thinks she cares about anyone else but her self...then you need to stop smoking crack!

i have been there and listened to the way she talks about people off air, how stupid her listeners are, how stupid everyone is.
 
You know after reading all the post about the Mighty Queen on this board and hearing about all the things that she does. Amie I honestly believe that it is in the best interest of your company and in general radio in this Market that you resign from Magic. I believe that you have lost sight of what your job is..you are deliberately sabatoging your sister stations..you throw your co-workers under the bus...and you try to make everything ONLY about you. I have to ask managament at Magic just exactly why u keep someone on staff that has no regard for anyone but themselves..and her station..You do know that you own four other stations in that market..Don't you? WTVY is NO MORE IMPORTANT THAN WKMX, WJRL, WBBK, OR EVEN WLDA! I mean come on your bleeding red over there one station is not- and cannot save you. It will take ALL 5 stations and the whole staff working together. It will take teamwork. Amie is clearly NOT a team player..she is the kink in the hose and she needs to be taken out. When your having problems you need to begin removing them..there are people on this board that will always defend her..NO MATTER WHAT..but you have to sit back and think why is she THE ONLY person in this market that is so despised..WHY? She's not sooo.great on the air that we're jealous of her..it's because Amie thinks only about Amie. I just don't understand it...I don't understand why a company would rather loose money in an effort to make one station great instead of trying to make the all the stations great..did those people ever take an economics course..and why even bother owning the other stations at all. Anyway thats my two sense and I'am positive that no opposing point of view will make any sense at all.I will simply be accused of being jealous of the queen..and told that I don't what I'am talking about...BUT I'am not the one losing a few million dollars annualy..WHATEVER I DON'T CARE JUST RUN THE WHOLE THING INTO THE GROUND ..NOT MY PROBLEM.

P.S.-sorry for the sidetracking.
 
Heard an old time KMXer call into 1039 and ask to hear "Good bye yellow brick road" this morning during John's last morning shift there. Quite appropriate. "You can't lock me in you penthouse.....".

The tower grows dimmer in the mist of the Lady's wrath.
 
Just thought of another great song for John to play for his last Boomer show today, Climax Blues Band's Couldn't Get It Right. First line is, "Time was drifting this rock has got to roll, so I hit the road and made my get away".

Odd, another song title just came to mind, Killer Queen by Queen.

"I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony"
 
The character in question is real, only a bad dream if you get your pay check because of employment on the 7th or 8th floor. Truly a character, does know how to build and hold a traditional country audience, obviously a great amount of confidence. Don't think you'll find anyone to argue these points too much, they may not like her style/delivery/language skills but you can't really argue with the size of the audience attracted. It may not be the education/economic level an advertiser desires but no doubt large and loyal. Work ethic is good, will work long days. Read past threads to draw your own conclusions about other characteristics.
 
Let me see if I get the jist of this thread - All Magic stations will come together in an emergency and pull resources to provide a service to the listeners. The HORROR! Are you people just looking for reasons to complain?
 
Mister Jackson,

You work there for two months, physically in the building, and then you'll understand. The concept is correct, it was probably suggested by one/some of the old guard KMXers when they were moved into the building two years ago, BJ or John or Brad or Rick or Mike (engineer/Styles) when KMX had an almost unquestioned reputation as giving excellent weather for the community for many years. It seems rather coincidental that it finally happens when the last of those previously mentioned here exits the building. Hmmmm. The community should have been complaining, Mr. Jackson. Please Sir, refer to the threads of the best weather coverage of the Enterprise tornado on March 1, 2006 and the subsequent threads that are weather related. Then, you may understand the undertone of this thread.

Thank you for joining in the discussion.
 
Hardly the biggest Magic fan here but it appears that this, if true, would allow them to combine resources and ge the info right. Correct? Now if this happens that way or not is another story.
 
Well.....at least those qualities you mentioned make her somewhat redeemable.
That may be the most positive thing I've seen on here.
I have worked with people who have worked with her. I thought maybe it was sour grapes. Apparently she has something of a "people" problem. Hope all works out for the best.
