Hey, what's with the attitude?. I am responding to
another post, who are you Leitner's agent?... Chill.
Saw has always been a strong ratings and revenue
generator in San Diego. He's tied into several more
years at CC, but could make a move after that.
The again he may not.
Lynch would ultimately make those decisions, not Leitner.
Ted's great at baseball, this is what he brings to XPRS.
Do you think Rome, Saw, or the late great Chet Forte got
along? No. But they produced great ratings. I saw it from the inside.
