Is the "T-Man" done on KYLD on Sept. 18th?

Speaking with my source from inside the CC SF cluster on Friday gives me gossip: (I swap CBS Radio gossip with her)
The two year T-Man/KYLD contract ends this Thursday. The new management at Wild like him even more than the old ones but want him to move permanently to the Bay. The word is that T-Man has refused and is not all that interested in staying on in the Bay area. In fact he doesn't even do the once in a while visit to SF anymore. Some bickering has begun between CC SF management and Seattle and they may get San Ant. involved. It will be interesting to see if the T-Man show goes off the air in The Bay on Thursday. KYLD managment is trying to keep him on through at least the end of 2008 but hasn't gotten that approval yet. Stay tuned.

I hope this is true...but, if it isn't, I would love to see "The Big Show with John Boy and Billy" take over mornings at KYLD!
 
I know for a fact that T-man has been making 3 million per year for the past 2 years. He has to realize that noone is paying that anymore, anywhere, unless you're on at least 100 stations. He is on just 2.
In the same token, clear channel should do whatever it can to hold onto what little talent it has left. T-man is 1 of 3 or 4 true talented people left in the entire company.
My 2 cents is you wont be hearing T-man on Wild on Thursday. We'll see.

Yea especially since picking them up would likely mean a format flip to country...NOT happening!

FYI....I don't really have an obsession with JB&B. I'm just a BIG fan of their's!
 
Every time there's a mention of a morning show opening you bring them up. Sounds a little obsessive to me.
 
All this and no mention of Cheap Channel just throwing on another syndicated show???

seems like they could save a mint and just put Big Boy on in the morning...

I'ld much rather have the Doghouse back, but lets just be realistic.
 
Pretty common for syndicated shows in the biggest markets to be paid quite a bit by the stations there. Bet Big Boy would want at least a million.
 
The "buzz" now is that if KYLD attempts to air the show on Monday that the "T-Man" will walk out. He was irate that, although the contract had expired, they still aired the show on Wild over the past two days. Stuff is hitting the fan and I hear Clear Channel heads in San Antonio told CC S.F. to move on to something else. I'll keep ya posted.

I just went to the KYLD website and I saw all of the T-Man stuff removed from there. Any guesses on who will take over mornings over there?

Let me guess...John Boy and Billy?
 
So they're going to replace the morning show, THEN bring in a new PD? That's pretty wacky (but unfortunately not unprecedented.)

On second thought...I would like to see The Morning Madhouse with Sam Diggedy come in from co-owned KDON in Salinas.
