Local Cox GM's getting canned

[scatman]

That's what I heard from someone I work with. Word is Cat Thomas isn't needed anymore and he's days away from collecting severance.

Isn't he still PD of WAPE and OM for the cluster. I know they brought in a PD for WMXQ a while ago.

Cox keeps their firing intentions pretty quiet, so it's quite unlikely that this will actually happen. Although, it is that time of year when this company seems to get so much pleasure out of canning people.

Cat is the OM for the group and PD at WAPE.

Cox already did it's staff reductions, so another would seem unlikely (unless he chooses to leave).

I did hear the CC Sales Mgr. at WQIK was fired, don't know her name; but she was the SM at WFYV.

Odd, as with L&T coming on soon, you would think she would be part of the process of selling L&T.

I remember in the earlier 90s he was the AM Driver (? Or other position) for WJQI 94.9 Norfolk, VA "Joy-95" A/C //WJQI 1600 Chesapeake, VA. May still have a sliver of an aircheck from then.
