Marni Hughes leaving Q13 FOX on September 11th....

I agree. There is another site based in a gulf coast State that makes fun of anchors leaving to spend more time with family. I don't know this is the actual reason here, but one must wonder. I would expect her back on the air somewhere (either Seattle or elsewhere) within 6 months.

Oh, the generalities of getting fired...

I am retired, but have been "let go" a number of times, (not unusual in the radio biz). But sometimes the way it happens can be random and/or unclear. I remember one job where the consultant said that "we agree that you need to move on", whatever that meant. Another said, "you need to do what you need to do, and if you are unhappy, that would probably help make your decision". Then when you try to get unemployment compensation it becomes an issue. Lesson learned. Get it in writing! But seriously, some in the media business make it sound like "their" firing is "your" resignation. Be careful. Just watching out for my younger comrades.

Never had this happen to me, but I've always been told that it's better to make them fire you than to get baited into quitting. It's a real shame that companies do this.
