What happened to Tom Jordan from KBUL? I tuned in this morning and heard some guy name Woody with Paula, who recently replaced Gina. I know this change was long overdue -- because the guy is still living in 1982 -- but I'm wondering if Tom got canned, or simply stepped down from the morning show to concentrate on his programming duties. Does anybody know?

Tom stepped down to do the Ops stuff. He' the Ops Manager, PD of KBUL, been doing AM drive "fill in" since 2000, first with Tanner (who's now mornings KSON), then Gina, then Paula. Cut the guy some slack, he works for Citadel and if you know anything about the Reno cluster, you got to give him some credit for hanging in this long. I know this is fact, I work for an agency in town and am very close with the folks there.

I've been in the Reno market for a few years now, and Tom is a solid programmer. And no, I do not work for Citadel. I'm across the street, watching. He has built a staff and station around what listeners in Reno really want. Sure there's always room for two stations of the same format, and KBUL will continue to be the choice for both listeners AND advertisers in this market. You know KBUL will always be here, but you never know if the other station owned by Lotus will be country tomorrow. And if they flip someone else will come along and think they can be better. If anyone knows this market, it's the KBUL staff that Tom has put together over the past several years and they will continue to be successful.
