Any idea if they have appointed a new PD for the Wolf in Seattle? I know they have been looking for a while and you think it would be a priority seeing they have been declining and KMPS has climbed back on top.

Apparently, good help is hard to find.
They were advertising on ... craigslist.

I know some of the folks that have interviewed and there are a couple of really solid candidates in the hopper.
From personal experience I can attest to the fact that it's a difficult job, for many reasons, most not obvious to the outsider.
I wish noting but the best to whomever lands that gig.
I'm sure Jerry and Dave will spill the beans when they have all of the details worked out and, because there's a mole on the 16th floor, everyone here will hear about it as son as the memo goes out.

So what's wrong with that? Lots of places find "good help" on Craigslist. And it's an easy way to meet EEO requirements.

That's not what a mole does, Rob. A mole spills the beans BEFORE the memo goes out. Someone who posts here AFTER the memo goes out is a "reporter". ;D

Jay McCarthy... Come on there has to be a mole who has some insider info...
In a unrelated story I have a Sony stereo cabinet for sale on Craig's list for $20.

I guess there is nothing wrong with finding a new PD in a place where I can also trade my toaster for a pair of used socks.

Would be nice if we could fix ourselves up both a nice radio gig and a nice end table on Craigslist. But that kinda defeats the logic and the price of picking up a Radio & Records, Billboard or even surfing Radio-Info for opportunities.
I can just imagine:
(DREAM SEQUENCE BEGINS)
It is the GM's office and a new Craigslist applicant for KKWF PD is seated across from the GM.
GM: Well, I've looked at your resume and your application, nice to meet you, umm...."Phlegm". It says here you worked at McDonalds, Game Stop and "some video store". Do you have any radio experience?
PHLEGM: Uhhh...yeah.
GM: What kind?
PHLEGM: A ghetto blaster. It was a nice one.
GM: Interesting, what have you done in radio?
PHLEGM: Me and my buds took it out to the woods and we had a kegger and we got totally wasted. Then this dude said something like we should put some M-80s in the radio. MAN! We were like S--- YEAH! Y'shoulda seen it!, it was like......BOOM!
GM: So I guess you're knowledgable about our protocol with format changes. It says here you head the Northwest chapter of the GWAR Fan Club?
PHLEGM: Yeah, I also do it's web site.
GM: I see.....
PHLEGM: Yeah dude. You see those animated GIFs of the blood splatters? I did those....
GM: Great. The Wolf has a web site, you know.
PHLEGM: Yeah..and I made some new logos. Check this one out...
GM: This one has demon wings. And what's it doing to that girl.
PHLEGM: Eating her alive.
GM: You sound like a real go-getter. We like that. Now, why were you fired from Game Stop?
PHLEGM: My piercings kept setting off the exit door security scanner.
GM: And for leisure, you like to "chill with my buds at 4:20 and do some ragin' skateboard"
PHLEGM: HELL YEAH!
GM: We also like someone who can put on a face of environmental responsibility and community leadership. Congratulations. You're hired......

Funny stuff cowboys none of it true ;D
Stay tuned, THE WOLF will announce its PD move soon and will be back on top of KMPS 18-34, 18-49 and 25-54 when the Summer book is out. The first complete sweep. Mark my words

For those who care ... still plenty of great spots in the "how long will the latest Entercom mid-management person last" pool.\
Still available .... 29 minutes .... 74 minutes .... and for those who really love the long shots (why not, the market's in the crapper anyway) ... we still have 6 days.

Well, no kidding... anyone who's seen the trends knows this is going to be a huge book for The Wolf.
But, thanks for the newsflash.
...and do have a nice day.
