Radio legend Joe Finan passes away

More here. And here.

Joe worked at WHK, WTAM/WNBK-TV (now WKYC), WIXY, in Denver and most recently at WARF; but had a very long stint in afternoon drive at FM talk scion WNIR. He was 79.

Does anyone know why he left WNIR? Was it his choice or did they terminate him?
 
Joe did indeed retire from WNIR. It was a big deal, and he was on the air for months after the announcement before he finally left that station's airwaves.

As the story goes, he started talking to WARF about a return...and when they suggested a weekend slot, he wanted five days a week.
