Hot FM's Blake Larson OUT

WRHT/GREENVILLE, NC APD/MD BLAKE LARSON exits after allegations in SPITZER probe

From All Access:

ARCHWAY Top 40 WRHT/GREENVILLE-NEW BERN, NC APD/MD BLAKE LARSON has been fired (7/26) following the allegations in NEW YORK Attorney General ELIOT SPITZER's investigation of payola, which became public earlier this week (7/25).


LARSON allegedly accepted a $1,365 laptop, $900 in airfare for two, and some SONY PLAYSTATION 2 hardware in exchange for airplay. So far, LARSON has been the only radio casualty of the investigation.

WOW, is this not just the greatest contrast!!!! Oh no!, you can't have a laptop...not inless you get me a hooker!
 
I believe that he went directly to WERO "BOB" 93.3. He has been at Bob along with the other talented jocks that were at Hot before the Archway collapse.
 
WHY IS THIS THREAD BEING RE-CIRCULATED?
....
BLAKE PAID PROFESSIONALLY AND PERSONALLY FOR HIS POOR JUDGMENT .......UNFORTUNATELY FOR BLAKE, HE WAS SERVED UP TO THE SPITZER INVESTIGATORS AS THE FALL GUY FOR A MUCH LARGER IN-HOUSE RACKET INVOLVING SOME BONAFIDE DIRT BAGS WHO DID THE SAME THING FOR MANY YEARS WITH NO BLOW BACK!

HAD THOSE INVESTIGATORS GONE BELOW THE SURFACE THEY WOULD HAVE HAVE BEEN SHOCKED AT THEIR DISCOVERY.

IF YOU KNOW BLAKE, THEN YOU KNOW HE ADMITTED TO HIS SCREW-UP, PAID THE PRICE AND MOVED ON...... BUT HE IS NOT DESERVING OF THIS REGURGITATION!
