It is CBS.
From what I hear, it wasn't a very pleasent exit. Not only was a resignation turned in and excepted, Mr. Palermo proceeded to write an email to WODS clients 'slamming' the station and its employees.
Talk about burning bridges, looks like he doesn't want work radio in this market again.

A quote from the email was that he was tired of covering for his inept co workers.

You get what you pay for. CBS, like Enterscamm, doesn't pay for talent. They have thrown out pros and hire hacks at a low rate.
It is good to see SOME of the great names are still there, but CBS doesn't care. The Telecommunications Act was the beginning of the end for WBCN. As much as it helps the shareholders it has hurt radio, has hurt regional radio especially, and has given us such lackluster talents - all who dare not be named because they read these boards religiously and will go off on the criticism - that the public has sought other forms of entertainment.
The internet, Ipod, Zune, television, anything but regional radio.
When I hear Fox News on RKO it is such a pathetic commentary. Radio conglomerates are making the format obsolete. "Legends in their own minds" who can't hold a candle to Laquidara, Wharfield, Paula Street, J.J.,
Parenteau, Dale Dorman, etc. troll these boards and are mystified that they got fired.
They hold an award that was awarded to the station for advertising and think that they really matter.
No. Your name is on it because you were appointed to the position and the "award" is for the station for
its loyalty in advertising. It's all a game and a joke and the joke is on the jocks who actually think they have an audience. Truth is, they scared the audience away.
Good for the Production Director sending out the nasty e mail. Good for the guy who walked off the air at WODS in the middle of the night. Who needs talent when you can play Christmas Carols all month long...

You could've omitted that. I value your input and opinon and perspective, as does everybody on this board (I think!) but it is always taken away from with useless slandering. We all know who your talking about. Tossing that into a message that has nothing to do with the subject is just way off. Stick to the facts and your perspective on the situation at hand.. not your pissing match with jocks or stations. Your personal vendetta discredits your input.. Maybe for Christmas.. you could work on that. (I've put this in the nicest way and ask that you respond the same way)

My writing style is my writing style.
Slander is oral bashing; there is no libel in the post because no names were mentioned. Yes, I believe all the nutty radio awards are questionable, so all recipients can get angry at me, but this is an accurate observation and - my opinion based on years of watching this industry implode.
Please note all the people who were complimented in my post. They were named.
happy christmas, BostonMusicMan

That is of course untrue. CBS does pay for talent if warranted but overall most companies dont want to pay much for their talent. It is basic business 101. The local jock is not as valuable as he/she once was in the minds of the corporations when you have the advent of sydication. None of your examples examples back your thesis. Wharfield and Parenteauu are mentioned ad nauseum by you and you alone. Parenteau is fondly remembered by some but whatever he did on air has been completely eclipsed by his being the worst type of criminal there is. A convicted,confessed pedophile and there is nothing you can say to spin him otherwise. Wharfield? a passable "jock" who never amounted to much in the market no matter how much you pump him up here (because he's your friend). Wharfiled is missed....by you and you alone. He never made a mark and barely anyone reading this board in 2006 knows who he is or could name one thing he did on air....Dont believe me?..the floor is open, anyone?......anyone? . That is not to say he was bad he was a perfectly competent "dj". Just nowhere near the legendary status you wish to bestow upon him.
Good for the guy for sending out a nasty email? that only makes sense to someone who has spent a huge chunk of his life burning bridges and then blogging about how unfair it is that he's been locked out of everything after alienating so many. Not an insult but Joe is by his own admissions here known for feuding with and or suing countless people but of course it is always somebody else's fault!....LOL.... Back to CBS not paying for talent; At last check JJ, Paula, and Dale were all still working for CBS so in addition to being dead wrong you have just disproven your own point with your own post.

Ahhh I have fond memories of Harvey from his days (afternoons) on ZLX. I was never a AAF listener but I remember him being there pre ZLX, and post ZLX on WCGY.
I also remember his producer at ZLX, Suzy Sherman who was assigned the fun task of board op'ing sat midnight into sunday morning. She was allowed to do a show of new wave music in the first hour of her shift, but it was voiced by Ann Cote. Someone told me she ended up in California somewhere.

Neggy, Suzy Sherman was lots of fun. Anne Cody was also part of the 1980s gang.
Anne Cody was also doing Common Ground but is now a proud mama; I believe she left the show because she wanted to spend time with her first kid. Kimberley Jaeger is also a proud mama and is now doing Common Ground.
Note to TowerBuzz: re-read my post: I applaud Paula Street, J.J., Dale and the gang. They deserve the paycheck they get. "who can't hold a candle to Laquidara, Wharfield, Paula Street, J.J.,
Parenteau, Dale Dorman, etc. troll these boards and are mystified that they got fired." I intentionally didn't
mention those who are mystified and why they (the subjective personal pronoun utilized is not the preferred one) both were let go while greater talents stayed on board.
In any event - I could go "either way" (like a Bi Friday, I guess) on the person sending out the e mail or not.
It is rather humorous, just thought I'd side with the "underdog" on that one. You continue to libel me in your posts when the truth about your career, such as it is, feeds your desire to besmirch people.
Long explanation for the needy that: my post was tongue in cheek

Joe I didn't libel you stop overreacting to everythin. You refuse to understand that you are what you create; negativity. Everything I said was a reflection of reading your posts. You tried to take credit on this board for "getting rid of" Depetro, Paul Marshall, Oedipus, you have launched attack, after attack on Howie Carr, Depetro, Jay Severin, Carter Alan, WRKO, WEEI, Entercom overall, WODS, WBCN, CBS RADIO as a whole, and on and on. I call this evidence of your numerous vendettas which appear to have consumed your very life. You think you are just expressig your opinion (which is almost always negative about people currently on air in Boston). It is of course your right to express your opinion but if anyone disagrees with you, proves you wrong, or expresses their opinion about your credentials or lack there of to critique working radio folk so liberally you accuse them of libel, attacking you, etc, and on and on. It happens over and over again. So you cannot take everything as a personal afront when so many of your own attacks are personal I.E Severin's or Depetro's appearance. Bottom line is I disproved your points so now you r story chanes and you were being tongue in cheek. Sometimes you're just wrong in your thinking and you get corrected. Stop trying to save face just be a man and admit you make mistakes and worse tend to post without the benefit of fact a lot of the time.
My God the run on sentence has found a new proponent. Hey TB, your posts read amazingly like someone who was banned from here. You take positive, constructive criticism and call it negative. It is all how one views things, young man. The bottom line is, more positive information flows from my pen than anyone on this board. Of course the mature magazines, newspapers and online media that utilize those thoughts might be difficult for you to follow since you often stray off-topic, but...
Bottom line is, Pete Falconi does a decent job with WODS. He puts a good mix of music in there.
Too bad that over 10 % of the year is Christmas Programming. CBS has not treated the professional employees as well as it could and a lot of hacks got jobs they didn't deserve for political and monetary reasons.
That's not a negative post, it is a negative action by an employer that cares only about the bottom line.
The messenger is not the enemy. Just because you've been criticized doesn't mean you have to blame the one putting it into print; as Pete Townshend said "go to the mirror"

Your post isn't inaccurate. It's inappropriate. The content and view you expressed on WODS and the director was fine. But then you completely negate the relevance of the post with your own little 2 cents of a personal vendetta with Paul Marshall. Even though you don't openly say his name, its clear you are referencing his situation and trying to discredit his efforts in radio. TowerBuzz too is trying to tell you this but you are hell bent on hearing yourself speak (or on reading yourself post) which is clear from your cable access program (and posts on here) Our criticism is not of your validity in a situation, all are welcome to comment in here. The criticism is of your endless bashing on people who are successful. Maybe you didn't make it in radio or maybe somebody didn't buy your CD or maybe somebody didn't watch your TV show or maybe somebody called you a name in 3rd grade.. Suck it up Joe. You can dish it out but you can't handle it.
WODS must be doing something right to be at the top of the ratings. Sure Xmas music drones on too long but there are some out there who like it and listen to it. Seems like a bad programming decision but I'm sure ODS' listeners don't think so.

You lack any credibility when you fail to put your name on the post. That's #1.
#2 is that it is fair to say I've been subjected to more abuse from ghosts and shadows on this board than anyone. I did not say that individual's name - you did. Many people have gotten awards. Perhaps I was thinking about Mistress Carrie? Going to Iraq for a publicity stunt as if she's Bob Hope. Please. That's how
you ghosts and shadows always get it wrong. You lash out and stray off topic.
I think Falconi does a great job with WODS. It was TONGUE IN CHEEK. But some people take things too literally, or in the case of "Towebuzz", an individual with multiple names on here, he doesn't even read the original posting correctly. Like Towerbuzz, Musicman, you make it up as you go along.
I specifically wasn't talking about Mr. Marshall this time. But you haven't been reading all these posts to know that Mistress Carrie's award started the whole thing. Or maybe you have a selective memory.
The moment you get behind a microphone you set yourself up for praise and for criticism.
It isn't going to be manufactured compliments all the time; and once the company lets you go all that
praise they manufactured vanishes like and with yesterday's newspaper.
As a newspaper writer said to me a few weeks ago during an interview, I matter because people take everything I say seriously. If it weren't the case, I would be ignored. So see if you can ignore me.
I'm a personality in the spotlight (read today's Globe), who can be found in both daily papers and the weekly, and you and many others here can't stand it. If belittling a cable tv show that is just one component of my wonderful and complex life makes you happy, I'm glad I can bring some cheer to your miserable existence.
I'm in the spotlight. My intellect has chosen to bless this board with my thoughts, and it gets reaction after reaction. If the "ghosts" ignored me perhaps my posts wouldn't matter. But, golly, I'm blushing from all the attention.
See if you can ignore me. Just see if you can stop yourself from responding to this post and all my posts.
Abstain for Lent. It will help you spiritually and intellectually to show a little discipline...or to be a real man or woman and post your name. If not, you're just an individual too afraid to put your name on what you write.
In the literary world that's called being a coward.
=============================================
post script: it is not easy to fight for what is right. Those of us with courage allow for progress.
Those who just give lip service get what they deserve. nothing.
From Today's Globe:
The spirit of my complaint against station management
is missing from the article. We are calling for term
limits, oversight, transparency, accountability. That
is what is needed.
It is not easy to fight an entrenched board that sends
threats out over the Internet, which your reporter has
a copy of: a metal safe falling on the head of a man...
============================================
These people play hardball. When you criticize a CBS or an ENTERCOM or even a million dollar funded Access TV station (the Comcast fees and the sponsorship total over a mill), you are dealing with nasty lawyers.
I can understand your reticence to do the right thing, Musicman. It isn't easy, but at the end of the day all benefit from my hard work.
So to answer your question: not only can i, rightfully, dish it out; I've been able to "handle it" better than you and better than most. I'm a survivor, tenacious and get things accomplished. It might've taken me and a few others decades, but a certain corrupt program director had to be held ACCOUNTABLE for the public trust that is 104.1 FM - the public airwaves owned by a Public corporation. Few came forward. Few do. But someone has to have the courage.

The reason people don't place their names on posts is to avoid themselves from being stalked or lashed out against. Perhaps I work at RKO or BCN? Surely every post would continually try to bash me for my involvement with your "enemy" I have the right to leave my name off of it, and I will do such.
It's not lent, so I will not relent in expressing my opinion.
SO You tell us that you weren't bashing Paul but then directly implicate that you were bashing Carrie. No better way to shoot yourself in the foot.
Your an egotistic man who can't get enough of himself, thats why you continue to post and get the attention you desperately need. I think anybody on any board you've posted on knows that after reading just 10 of your posts.
Yes I admire your work and accomplishments, I've said that a few times. But when you continually blow them up and stuff them in our faces as if our accomplishments aren't good enough to have a relevant opinion, then there is where I draw the line.
We should probably end this before we have to take it outside!

Bostonmusicman is dead on in his post.
Credibility is not tied to one's screen name it is found within the content of their posts. Very few here are self obsessed, delusional, and insecure about their own accomplishments in this field to the point of NEEDING everyone to know who they are like "Joe". I will not debate any poster's credibility with a man whose sole accomplishments seem to be a cable access show, and numerous blogs that receive little traffic. Someone who boasts about a record label he runs but sells no records of any considerable quantity, and doesn't appear to have spent any time at all working in commercial radio in Boston. That makes you a wannabe and unless your birth certificate actually says "Varulven" on it you dont have a leg to stand on in your argument about others posting under pseudonyms. Sign your name to every post if it feeds your obsessive need to be acknowledged but it still does not give you any credibility just because we know who is posting completely inaccurate ideas as fact. Try to stay on topic instead on pulling down every thread into this strange battle that you seem to be waging against the world.

Your honor, I rest my case. I'm that important to them. It is rather frightening that they cannot resist. They just cannot resist responding to me. It is called Obsession. Dr. Melfi - please, help them out.
Word to my vast fan club - hey, this thread is supposed to be about WODS production director.
That you find it irresistable to make it about someone who makes a comment, tongue in cheek even, speaks volumes. Can you stick to the topics without attacking the posters just because you think you know them?

Everything you said in this thread has been incorrect and has been proven so. There; topic stuck to. Dr. Melfi? the tv shrink? Yes, referencing fictitious characters in attempt to make your point sure raises your credibility :
. You really sound like this crazy person with no grip on reality. Good luck with that.

Well after reading this, I'm sure he won't be anywhere for a while:
The email that was sent to clients and agencies of WODS.
-----------------------------------------
Dear friends-
Moments ago I gave my resignation letter here at WODS-FM. I can no longer tolerate the incompetence and poor work ethic of my fellow employees that is accepted at this radio station and having to cover their mistakes. I will be returning to teaching, on-air work(part-time), and making cookies with my kids while my wife stabs people with needles at her job a little more often. Just to spice things up a bit and to keep my guitar chops fresh I’ve joined a Madonna tribute band as their sexy guitarist.
I am writing you this letter mainly to let you know how to reach me now: ################### or the Palermo Party line(my cell) #########.
Please use this contact info now here on in. Friday, 12/29 will be my last day here at WODS.
To my professional business contacts – I’m now a free agent and available for any side projects since I do have plenty of production software at my home studio to produce your spots and other audio projects.
This has been a decision in the making for a long time and the timing seems to be right for me now as I enter the new year with plans on pursuing my music and acting career.
Merry Christmas!

I'm sure that his former co-workers are none to happy about this, especially the 2nd sentence. His email and phone info removed for his protection. I also heard that he didn't quite make it to his resignation date, and he was escorted out of the building the week before.
And one must wonder where he obtained his production software, etc.
