Despicable. Reprehensible. Irresponsible. Bastards!
Pity Mr. Gache, so without blemish or fault is he that he and his sidekick can laugh at an idividual who's been scared for life. Gache, a man of corpulent stature who when sued for for publicizing the unlisted home phone number of a public health official with who he had issues while at WGY Schenectady, claimed to be bi-polar.
Bob1370 must not have heard or paid attention to the witty musings of Mr. Gache when he was on WGR in the early 90's, where the hate-monger and his lovely wife "Suzie" plyed their craft in middays. Your a better man for not having heard Gache's full repetoire of ill-reasoned logic, bomabastic stupidity and what he presumed to pass as humor.
A friend who worked at WGR in the 90's tells this story: When Gache gave notice at WGR, he told his bosses that he was leaving "to care for his sickly father in Tampa." Conducting due diligence, WGR management discovered Gache had signed a contract to do middays at WWL in New Orleans.
Tears flowing, JR and Suzie, did their last WGR show telling listeners that they were leaving to care for JR's ailing dad in Florida. Problem was, WGR managers knew exactly what Gache was up to and had the paperwork to prove it. When they presented their proof to Gache, he vehemently denied it, insisting it was contrived by management in order to hold him to his WGR contract. Two weeks later JR and Suzie, were on the air in the Big Easy gushing about how good it was to be "back home and how much they hated, cold, dreary, hicktown Buffalo."
The latest Gache incident is just one oif many that cause compassionate, caring, educated and articulate people to look at those in radio and think them to be fools. Hard to argue with that opinion at times such as this. The man gives radio a bad name. Away with him.
