Sandy Bennett is needed back on the air!

Sandy Bennett is a highly respected and unique DJ. 106.7 should hire her and give her a huge salary to keep her in the Cols area. She has over 25 years in radio and knows how to relate to her listeners. She is very talented and could bring in BIG ratings! I know that a lot of former Sunny 95 listeners would love to hear her again and need a new station to listen to.

Ideally, it should have been a lateral switch with Sandy going over to Smooth Jazz. She definitely has a voice that blends well with the music.

As for Trisha, I enjoyed listening to her when Clear Channel owned 93Q. She has a bubbly personality (and had it long before Colbie Caillat) that goes well with an AC format.

Now, if Sunny would continue to expand its playlist and have more current songs in the rotation...
 
I think whoever hires her will get a valuable asset to their station ;D I met her once and she was excellent at promoting the station and I think everybody was shocked :eek: when she was fired. Sunny 95 has slipped so far in the ratings it makes you wonder what the heck they were thinking! ??? :mad:

I agree with you! I keep trying to find stations that have good DJ's but I have yet to find one like Sandy. She was outstanding and I hope to hear her again at some station in Columbus. I will start listening to that station during her time slot!

I'm not accusing, just observing.

The fact is, they are many of us on this board that were friendly, unique, dedicated, appreciated, liked, admired, etc. when we were on the air, and many of those many would likely love to do again the thing we love to do for a living. Situations change, the business of radio changed.

If Sandy wants another on-air gig, she will do what she needs to do, go where she needs to go and bother whoever she needs to bother to get it. That is radio.

I'm not trying to start the new year being nasty or hard, I'm just saying that keeping this topic alive for two months with minimal participation may not be the best possible strategy if you want to help her.
 
Sandy Bennett Rocks

Even though I am not Sandy Bennett, I think she's the coolest dj ever. Did I mention I am not her? Aren't I Isn't she the best? Aren't Columbus radio stations so stupid for not hiring her? I'm She's so much better than anyone. Ever.

Please! Someone bring her back!

I don't like being compared to other people. What difference does it make if somebody joined and expressed their opinion? Not everybody knows about this board and some that do don't express their opinions or register. I think you must personally know her. Perhaps you also got screwed by WSNY?

Yeah, I would love to help her get a radio gig. Not as much for her but for me. I want someone that I like to hear, make a difference in my day. She was extremely good at doing that for a lot of listeners. I wish more people would speak up in favor of her.
 
she's on T 102 WIMT Lima......part of 'two guys and a girl' in the morning. check out the website

www.t102.com ..... there she is!

which one of you is bingberry?
 
and i can't resist this one.....she's living on the air in allen county....allen county...WIMT...
 
The radio business can be a Cold..Heartless and unforgiving business.
Ms. Bennett got caught in the harsh reality of it.
She has a true passion for the business and it is in her blood.
Whether working in Cleveland or Missoula Montana...she is again doing what she loves!
Go Get 'em girl.
So glad you are back on the air. ;)
 
I like Sandy Bennett, so this isnt a slam to her at all. However, why would she work for Satan? Not Clear Channel, im meaning Ms. Fields and Mr. Ryder. The two of them have literally destroyed the CC Lima market by millions (cash) and even CC Corporate is tired of the two of them.
