After 12 years, and ratings success. Shawn Burke was let go Friday. Elise moves to AM drive, Hildi, PM drive.

So that's who they fired to bring Hildi in

Hildi? Really? Jebus....

Men are getting to be an endangered species in radio.

Are you kidding?? I don't get the Elise/Hildi thing. They're the pds and mds and voice track for hours on end and do all the remotes. Someone in that building likes them ALOT.

Shawn is a great guy who deserves better treatment than this.

 

[vadar]

Hildi is hot!!!!!!!!!!! ;D

From what is heard, someone wasn't anxious to take their new position. In fact, it seemed like a demotion.

And 12 years ago, the legendary Bill Gable wasn't exactly a ratings slouch, either, when Shawn replaced him. Stay anyplace long enough these days and you become a target for an economy move.

(Cue the music: Elton John, "Circle of Life.")

And that's how it works at Cox.

For the record, Shawn did NOT replace Bill Gable, as Bill left for a job in Canada. Shawn then took the job.

After HTQ anything would be a PROMOTION.
