JAY SEVERIN ADMITS CONTACTING THIS BOARD TO SHUT DOWN DISCUSSION OF HIM

This is exactly the problem, not the symptom. Severin will "name call", but if anyone reports (in a humorous way, I might add) what the choice names are for
Jay Severin, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, they are put in a "Hall of Shame".
Quid pro quo?
What's good for the goose?
Severin clearly has issues if the 300 or so people who cruise this board religiously get to him. Isn't he broadcasting to millions?
Now when posters come out of the woodwork and attack other posters, it is usually because they've been ordered to by a self-loathing FM talk show host or a corrupt FM program director. The moderators should have the insight to see that the messengers become the victims. Parklane's mission is a good one - but they push his buttons and he goes off on tangents, clouding the real issues.
The most obvious of the real issues being - Jay Severin is a terrible radio host with a terrible reputation who kisses the behinds of the right people,
doesn't rock the boat, and is able to spread his venom to an increasingly smaller audience, even though he's given more airspace. The more they give him, the more the real "best and brightest" will flee.
There - now I've abided by the rules - but fully expect this message to self-destruct as it isn't saying what "radio-info" may want to hear.

Re: BRAVO!.....
This thread isn't going anywhere...by me, anyway.
My point has been...to keep it professional. That's all. Is that really hard to understand? It has nothing to do with the content (to a point..libel, language etc) but is has to do with HOW you say (write) it.
Parklane has violated the rules, he has also lost any trust factor, that's for sure. No matter who you are, I wouldn't trust him for anything - to take something trivial and turn it into an issue (big deal if we got an email...the newspapers get the same, if not more)! It's apparent he's got his own agenda here. I will say that many times whenever a specific person is targeted, we will get an email with a "Why am I being talked about on your board". So it's no big deal IMO that Jay did the same, even requesting the posts be halted.
I said it before, I have no loyalties. I have never heard Jay, I don't know Jay, Jay has never communicated with me anything. My position is to maintain the integrity of the board. It has been misused. Keep it professional like fccfight did. I have no problems with that. This isn't about what Radio-Info wants. It's about making this a good place to come to.

Re: BRAVO!.....
Please, I was born at night but not last night.
If you get an email from Jay Severin or some GM at a radio station you are going to pay more attention to it than anything I might write.
As to "Trust" Charlie, tell the posters here just ONE thing I have written that is Not True.
The rules cannot be different for people with power or access to this board. Seems they can name call and get away with it but if we respond the response is to shut us down.

Wow..well, we're here to talk about radio and Jay Severin is a hot subject.
Maybe we should just ignore him. I try to ignore his show every day though
lately Hannity has been on, so... (but I know they rebroadcast SH every
night anyway so this way I can hear Carr...)
Has he tried to do the same to Radio Equalizer?
Jay, best of luck wherever you wind up, whether it's back at FM Talk 96.9,
or the Formerly Flo Jonic Station, or the AM talker you once worked for
but you later referred to as "Fart Radio".

I thought Parklane had been banned (Great move by the way, I agree with all your reasons and have wondered how this didn't happen much much sooner.. you have sure given him tons of chances).. anyway, if he's been banned, how is he still able to keep on posting this dribble? You're right, he disrupts this board in a major way and thank you thank you Cabradio!

I try not to attack other posters, but a radio talk show host is fair
game, isn't he/she? We can say whether or not we like the way they do
their show, or perhaps debate their opinions on the issues. In doing so
we may do like many talk hosts do and make up funny names for people
in radio or politics. Harry Reid becomes Dingy Harry according to Rush.
John Kerry is Liveshot according to Howie. By the same token, Rush has
been called "Flush" and Howie's been called a bunch of names ("I like
to call him Coward Ha-Ha," said one caller to _another show_ awhile back.)

Well, some like him and some don't. Infinity feels there are enough
best-and-brightest out there to support a national show. People
criticize hosts like Hannity but he has tens of millions of listeners
and makes ABC lots of money. If Jay gets a huge amount of listeners
on this new show, then hey, fine with me, and if Al Franken winds
up getting as many as Hannity, good for him. It doesn't necessarily
mean I'll be among Al's listeners, though. And maybe I'll give Jay's
show a chance but what he's done before personally doesn't float
MY boat. It may be attractive to others, though.
I took a quick scan of the rules. Yes, I know the folks here want to
prevent any lawsuits, major disagreements, scandals, false accusations,
and so on. The rules are quite extensive for that reason, I'm
guessing, but I still am kinda unclear on whether it's OK to
poke fun of a _media figure_ with a funny name, or whether that's
off limits. I'm guessing it means "don't attack other posters".
We can attack their opinions, right? But going beyond that into
personal ad hominem attacks is flaming, and rightfully should be
squashed.

OK...I just hope that we get a "warning" when we transgress
to let us know what, if anything, we did was wrong.
I'm admitting right here that sometimes I _like_ to have fun
with trivial matters like whether or not Jay does his show
from NY, but stuff like claims of a phony Pulitzer--is that
trivial? Some hosts would be lambasted for stuff like that.

We could just ignore you, Mr. Severino. Would that make you happy?
I guess you must be doing SOMETHING right if you get people
talking about you.

Agree - I think Parklane should be banned as well. He "thinks" he is above this board - as all he does is push buttons.
It's one thing to talk about the issues in Radio - it's anouther to constantly bash someone whom is trying to do a job day in and day out.
As much as I hate Jay Severin - Parklane is getting to be far worce. No one likes complainers, especially those that have a special "right".
Parklane - if you want to continue to bash Jay Severin - please do it on anouther board - I for one am getting sick of it.

The Issue Is: Jay Severin Not Parklane
The issue isn't parklane but Jay Severin and whether he attempted to pressure the moderators here to shut down the discussion.
Guess this will give more fodder to Scot Lehigh at The Boston Globe.
Parklane did not make Severin a Pultizer prize winner or force him to change his name. The issue is the credibility of Jay Severin or Jimmy Severino.
By the way, I think his program was far more interesting if not entertaining than anything else on in that time slot.
Just asking that Severin not plagerize his background. Is that too much to ask?

Yup...but maybe 96.9 just likes to put plagiarists on [former Globe, Herald
columnist walks into the room] --why, hello Mr.
Barnicle! We were just talking about you...

Am email request is hardly pressure. Like I said parklane, you take trivial matters and turn them into issues...your issues by the way, not the majority.

Trust goes beyond telling lies. It also encompasses confidentiality, breech of contract, etc. etc...

This board isn't the here to counterpoint what is said on the air! It's here to discuss radio. Sometimes it does involve what has been said on the air, but that is to be the exception, not the rule. If Severin called you a name on the air, this isn't a place for you to respond! What do you not understand? If you want to respond to something said and you didn't get a chance to call in...go to the STATION'S message board. If they don't have one, request one. You'd be surprized what you get if you just ask...of course, I wouldn't at this point if I were ANYBODY in Boston, because the "powers that be" at each targetted station has seen how you will abuse it.

Trust goes beyond telling lies. It also encompasses confidentiality, breech of contract, etc. etc...

The ban request goes to the admin, who makes the ultimate decision. It doesn't happen instantly.

Re: The Issue Is: Jay Severin Not Parklane
I understand everyone's issue with Jay's resume, BUT what's the big deal if he drops an "O" off of his last name?? As noted by other posters it is VERY common for DJ's to either change or modify their on air name..
Who really cares?? The facts are out there, lets move on and put this behind us. I'm sure Greater Media is taking care of this issue with Jay. What's done is done! Let's move on and talk about how WMKK sounds more like a Classic Hits station than a Variety Station..
I'm sure Jay will be back on the air soon and we'll hear his side of the story..

Day 6 of Life Without Severin
3:06 pm:"Coverage That Doesn't Stop. Sean Hannity. on 96.9, FM Talk"
SH on 'TKK yet again, no mention of "I'm in for Jay".
Since no word from GM or JS, we can speculate where Jay's new show will wind up.
--WTKK? Maybe, though if the show airs in early evening where would they put it?
Could be:
1-3 O'Reilly
3-6 Hannity, live
6-9 Severin
9-mid Ingraham, tape delayed
or Ingraham at 6, then pick up Severin at 7 or 8 or whatever
--WRKO? I can't see them changing Carr or Savage but maybe at 10 pm in place
of Batchelor?
--WBZ? Could air 7-10 pm, then a shortened Sullivan show. Note: lots of
pre-emptions for "Shot...SCORE!!"

No - my issue is not really with your opinion of him - but how you can't seem to just let it go - and/or discuss it in one thread. Jay Severin does not need 15 threads in one week devoted to him.
We have all read the article - and most people here agree with you that he is a fraud - but that's just our opinions. This is not WW3 and should not be treated as such a big deal! In reality - most people will forget about this subject in a few more weeks. We do not need hourly updates . . . .
If the old saying rings true that there is no such thing as bad press - then Jay Severin should send you some flowers parklane because all you are doing is giving him publicity.
I'm willing to bet that more people are going to listen to him when he comes back to find out just what he says or how he addresses the situation.
More people listening = more ratings!
Just give it up and hopefully he will just go away when everyone realizes exactially who he is. . .
Now - can we talk about sommething else - like what direction is BCN going in?

In defense of Flat-top
Say what you will about Flat-top, but you have to take the Globe (or "Boston Globe Retractor", as Flat-top calls it) article with a grain of salt. Jay and Scott Lehigh are sworn enemies, and it's an op-ed piece after all. Scott has about as much affinity for Jay as someone like Terry Moran has for President Bush (ie: not much).
How come these stations never give the skinny on the air? When Scotto replaced Ozone on the WRKO morning show, there was no explanation. Ditto for Depetro replacing McCarthy and Vigue. Hmmmmm.

True. What will we do if we can't hear about the "pro-grum" on "nine-tee-six-nine", Dr. Bruce Houttttttton and the Counttttttertop Shop?
I also love the five-minute impromptu commercials for Perfect Smiles. They make me think I have green teeth like the Grinch, which does wonders for my self-esteem! I shouldn't be allowed out in public!
I would hope Jay could accept some criticism, with exception to some of the slandering in the Globe. Maybe the nicknames are a bit much but they're fun.
