What happened to Bob Kelly?

The point of having Bob Kelly on the radio was more exposure for CBS Eyewitness News. Now that he's not on PM drive at 1060, his only radio exposure is on 1210 during AM drive. 1210 is a fast-sinking ship, their ratings are in the toilet while 1060's ratings are solid, not to mention on 1060, traffic reports are 6 times an hour vs. only 2 on 1210. I feel like if Bob is only going to be on for one shift, it should be PM drive on 1060. Makes for better synergy than AM drive on 1210, not to mention I miss hearing him on 1060. :-\
 
Yes, it's not the same....because it's SOOO much better without that hack Kelly!
If I heard the word "JAMMO" one more time.. kind reminds me of another word that I won't mention here.

Kudos to John Brown for staying the course

I think he does traffic on WOGL too.
 
And also keep in mind, 1060 I guess is trying to have their traffic reports shortened due to the new modifications to their broadcast schedule and format to get more news in, although some traffic reporters on the station still have long reports.  I think that's why KYW pulled the plug on Bob.
