WBHT 97.1fm

Roger

I heard that Mark McKay was fired from WBHT 97.1fm. I wonder who be acting PD until they fill the job. Mark was a hard worker and I hope he finds someing soon.

I also wonder if they will pick someone from the station to be the new PD. What does every one think?<P ID="signature">______________

Mark was a pompous boob. The brains behind BHT has been AJ..he's the acting PD and if Citadel has the smallest grain of sense they'll make him the permanent item.

Agreed 100% The few times I met Mark I found him to be a complete idiot. AJ on the other hand is the real deal.

McKay was there as far back as 1998 when I was at
Citadel. He actually started out as the Cat Country
PD. Not a bad run for that company.

I disagree. He came to BHT shortly after Bill Fox. They had just let Steve McKay go. He came from Bakersfield... the same station Bill Fox came from. He only programmed BHT in WB/SCR.

Hey JAFO... Mark's not a bad guy. I worked with him for a couple of years. While I may not have agreed with him on some issues, I don't think I would call him an idiot. I'm sure some people may think you're "a complete idiot".

I stand corrected. I mixing up my McKays!!!! The next
thing you know I'm gonna be seeing Jim Mckay in my
dreams!!!! I had completely forgotten about Steve McKay.
Thanks for the memory refreshment. Not to excuse it, but
I am old and at the big C, faces and titles were a blur.

I'm sure of that as well. You know what they say opinions are like. But you also know what they say about lasting first impressions.
However for my two cents worth, every time I ran into him he just rubbed me the wrong way. "A complete idiot" is the nicest thing I could think of.
 
While AJ probably should be considered for the gig since he's been
there forever, and has anchored mornings...the smartest thing Citadel
could do is transfer JERRY PADDEN from Allentown, and really SHOVE IT
to Entercom and KRZ. I don't know if he'd take the gig, but he'd be the
best choice,...knows the war turf & labels inside and out, not to mention,
MOTIVE...McKay has a reputation of having seriously deficient people skills,
and lacking respect of his co-workers, which explains the consistant revolving door of air talent in that studio. -RS

Padden represents the past. AJ is the future. Padden's gone because KRZ had lost it's way. No reason for Padden to screw up BHT as well.

But why is KRZ still the force to be reckoned with?

They've changed because the times have changed. It's called adaptation.<P ID="signature">______________

They are still a "force" only because they have a 50Kw signal. If BHT and KRZ were equally powered with an equal coverage zone on a single frequency, BHT would be the stronger format.
