WSAR BIG ANNOUCEMENT

RadioNut said:
Number one where????....i've looked all over and can't find WSAR leading in anything!!!....number one with stations just named WSAR?

When was the last time you saw a rating book? Have you seen the last booking? Look at it. Than come back to me with a comprehensive response!
 
I used to be the meanest one to Keri. I now think I'm the nicest. Take note of that Keri. I've heard that you were looking for ways to mess with me. ;)
 
Radio Ponte, Wiz and the other Wsar people. The speech patterns are all the same...
It's always the same speech too, that one particular person is really great.
Ok, this is W E I R D , Ok?

Why all the activity from WSAR all at once? Either it's all one from person (or) Keri hung up a memo in the newsroom regarding this board. You take your pick.

This is the exact response, I expected from you!- Its nothing she had us do! Why would she. We've never even had a conversation pertaining to this. Its actually not something I am proud of.

I need to get this off my chest! Most people on this radio board sit here, and complain about radio not giving people opportunities

… I am another one of those “college kids” doing news at WSAR- and I love it. – Keri opened the door for me. Why? Because she understands, that someone needs to start somewhere. For heaven stake, why don’t you people give up on “bashing” Keri??? – Since you all are so called “radio people” why don’t you comprehend the fact when you are on the air, you’re a different person. – What do you think? Do you honestly think Keri is running up and down the WSAR halls screaming? Do you think Keri is sitting at her desk looking for someone to yell at? NO.. NO and NO. – She is completely different off the air.- But I will stop there… because you frekin idots would “ assume”… its Keri posting this…

I feel for most of you right now…. I truly do… I actually feel bad! I have some advice for most of you who want to “bash” WSAR…. And “bash’’ the staff …

1) If you want to personally bash Keri ,Myself, Eddie, or Mike and The “ college kids doing news”… Why don’t you call us? Why don’t you man up?.... Why don’t all you people who seem to know so much about WSAR get a freaking “ job”. Wait….. You’re unemployed.

2) Do be jealous. - Don’t be jealous because when you were in college you didn’t have the same opportunity. KERI gave us. –

3) Stop calling WSAR a “dump”… All these people who “worked” at WSAR recently are not working at WSAR for a reason… Besides… “Who the hell are all these people who “recently worked at WSAR?”.. Unlike most radio stations… WSAR isn’t a revolving door.

4) On the pay…. If you think, I am going to tell you how much I am making… “Get Bent!”- I am making more money than most college kids- working in promotions, and handing out bumper stickers at other radio stations. (The competition out there is fierce, people our age would die for such an opportunity, and most of you who comment, and look back at people’s history all day- would also die for the opportunity)

5) What makes you think; I would degrade myself, and resort to such a low standard by signing myself under another name. I tell it how it is, and NOT afraid to confront you. But I think you are afraid to confront me………..

FINALLY, “Hotmanlarry” ; what do you mean by? “ponte = Keri’’… Is this who I think it is? “Use to work at WSAR?... hmm…. Why don’t you identify yourself?.. Or is it a big secret?... Your going to continue your slander toward Keri and us all right?


It amazes me… and really gets under my skin that you “ losers’” sitting at home all day long have the “ freaking” time to sit there and look at people’s history. I have no idea who WIZZ is. I’M CLIFF PONTE… ok! WOULD IT BE BETTER IF I CHANGED MY NAME?


Here is my word to you… As mentioned, the competition is fierce people would die to be in my position right now. – You are either sitting at home all day long.. looking for a job on allaccess.com; or you are just jealous that WSAR is growing to be truly Number ONE in Bristol County…

Barry Richard = Number One in midday…. ( I saw the ratings)

Keri= Number one in the afternoons ( I saw the rating’s)


Have a good easter... Maybe you will find something to talk about during the weekend.....

I agree.... I should tune my girl into this too... she would be very interested to see all these ""dummies""



I found it, here it is, proof that SAR is #1.... WSAR #1 STATION WITH A 3 PAGE RANT ABOUT NOTHING!!!

Oh is this the EXACT response you would expect from me? A response of COMMON SENSE. Good. Maybe you are smarter than I thought. Listen to me. WSAR has been a topic on this board for years. So you tell me why all of a sudden in the very same week, multiple accounts are registered and why they are all posts from people who claim to work at WSAR? Why are you all coming out of the woodwork at the exact same time? Did you have a meeting of the minds and all decide to post at once? Are you guys out of your mind? All it takes is a little common sense to see what is going on. But just in case I am mistaken.... then why don't you explain to me why EVERYBODY FROM WSAR has decided to all post at the same time! Your move.

OMG...GET OVER YOURSELF!
I don't know what the hell your problem is, but let's discuss what I just said that has sent you in a tizzy. I've just stated a fact and you seem to be up in arms. Let's go. What did I just say that caused you to go CAPS CRAZY?

John, you just keep showing how diluted you are. WSAR may be a fine station; but that as a "career" in radio that you had and the emails you get from your buddies who worked there doesn't really qualify as being truly in the industry. If it was someone who you had never worked with/for, that would be one thing and just because Dan and/or Matt make "cryptic (not kryptic)" reference to this board (not you specifically, the site more often than not) doesn't mean you affect (not effect) anything.
You have my pity.....

Wow.... you sure make a lot of assumptions. All of them wrong! The email I've been getting from people on this board ARE NOT from people I have worked with. THEY ARE from respected people in the industry. You would know them well.

#2. Obviously I am having an effect on people by what I say. Trust me..... I don't believe that I should have any effect at all seeing that I just post some silly comments. But judging by the mail I get and judging by how Yorke had a meltdown directed at me a couple months ago, "tells me that I have an effect." Keri Rodriguez emailing me about my posts "tells me that I have an effect." Jimmy Grey sending me notes regarding my posting his air checks and thanking me for my support "tell me that I have an effect!"

You might not like me wknd92, but it doesn't change the fact that I obviously have an effect. The biggest effect would be on YOU........ because YOU can't seem to stop talking about me!

THE END
 
You guys obviously get on each others' nerves. Why not accept it & avoid each other? No one has ever convinced anyone of anything on the Internet. If you can't get along, just get out of each others' ways.

Skynet thats soo cool Jimmy Gray emailed you!! Mornings are not the same without him!!!


Yeah he seems like a nice guy. Very friendly and Polite. I've got more tapes of him somewhere. I told him that I would post more as I came across them. He said he's got more than 500 hours of scoped air checks from 1969-1992 but has no technological knowledge to do what I did. So he mentioned it being very refreshing to hear what I posted here and told me that he really appreciates my efforts and comments. Jimmy couldn't have been any nicer of a guy.
 
Give Keri the credit she deserves will ya.

I have never heard her on the radio, but she and I used to email all the time when she posted on the radio-info boards. She decided she wanted to do radio at a young age and did what she had to do to make it her career.

I bet she and I would not agree on many things, but she has done pretty well at getting WSAR on the map and exposing some things that needed to be brought to light. If radio wasn't self destructing she might have been in a larger market by now, but that's for another thread.

I wish her, and her family all the best.

In the New Bedford/FR book your correct. WBSM has the morning's.. ( for now).... But Barry and Keri in the afternoon's kicked butt. What book are you lookin at?
 
Kicked butt in your opinion maybe, but you said number one, and i don't see that, and there is NO WAY morning can be overtaken
 
Radio Nut, Propaganda, is what you're fighting.
I could never imagine the P.D.s at Whjj or Wpro actings this foolishly.
