KHTE AFTERNOON DRIVE FIRED!!!

Its confirmed program director/afternoon host "DJ NO NAME" aka Joe Ratliff has been let go from KHTE Hot 96.5 / Crain Media Group / Little Rock Arkansas. No name along with side kick B level and Anphernee P were let go Monday evening. Rumor has it there was a bit about hometown boxing star Jermaine Taylor that went too far. After Taylors manager spoke with the owner of the station the 3 were terminated. Although there was previous speculation of a format tweak coming to the signal soon, this too may have something to do with it.
 
And it just keeps getting better....WOW...Come on...have a little self respect..."Allegedly"...it has been "rumored".....but sources inside the Crain camp are reporting that not only did someone he got fired there assume he had a buy out clause in his contract, which he was soon reminded he did not, but his own wife called the GM and owner of the company to "beg" for his job back...wow!
 
Looks like the makings of a great radio drama! I wonder what else Hot 96 try to do. I think the owners are not learning by example when they let go of a good jock whose contract has yet expired. I guess with that, I smell a lawsuit in the works.
