Rich Eldridge: Vikki Back on Monday

[RoddyFreeman]

Looks like B98.5 will be "The New Home of Vikki."

Rich Eldridge of Atlanta Magazine is reporting on their website that Vikki Locke is returning to B98.5 on Monday. Will it be for the final 4 months of her contract? Will it be for 4 months plus a year?

Your guess is as good as mine. But get ready for 50-minute music hours plus Quickies from Vikki.

I just heard from someone deep inside Cox Radio that Vicki Locke has cleared out her office.

Wrong again. You must be the best contrarian indicator in broadcasting.

Hey cabbagehead, just because she agreed today to return doesn't mean she didn't clean out her office last week. Common reaction to a demotion os screw them I aqm leaving by Sunday you are thinking what the hell I still need a job and by tuesday or Wednesday you are back in.

Unfortunately for you, it didn't happen in this universe....but then again, some of the posters clearly live in a parallel universe - must have happened there.

Her extension is not 100% finalized but I'm told its 95% there, just a few minor legal issues to square away, hopefully by the end of the day.

So what happens to Steve?

When you say extension, are you talking about the final 4 months of this contract or an extension beyond that?

Why take an extension for only the last four months of your contract if they are going to pay you anyway? Right?

Steve is available for hire for your wedding or your kid's Bar Mitzvah.

Why is Vikki considered the more marketable of the two to go "solo"? Why not just "Steve"?

Once thing that Steve & Vikki have never done on B98.5 to the best of my knowledge compared to Kelly & Alpha, is voicetrack themselves on weekends. I seem to remember hearing canned voicetracked Kelly & Alpha (not that they're not canned even when they're live) on weekends and even weekend nights. But Steve & Vikki? Nada. Must have been in their contracts.

Not unfortunate for me. Just not sure who to believe. How credible can someone be who is their paid consultant. You get a check to kiss their butt and brightside everything. You know what they say those who can't consult.

So you say I am their paid consultant - the others who you want to believe say I am not involved any longer. Interesting you want to believe them on one thing - but not others.

I'll also say it again - Vicki's desk was never cleared out - despite what Neil's "insiders" have stated. Now, if you were to say Steve's desk is cleared out (which was not said), the person might had actually had a clue - even though Steve is still a Cox Employee (at least until the end of his contract). Guess he decided he didn't need to use his desk, for whatever reason.

You know what they say those who can't consult.

Yes, they spend every waking hour of their life posting on Radio-Info about an Industry they are not qualified to be in and clearly know nothing about.
