Article talks about NY and Philly, but let's see if they fire Rick Camp yet again.

Wasn't there just a discussion here about how strong the Philly and New York sports stations were?

Stupid fucking Android phone 'spell check."

On the other hand, Audacity would still have been a better name than the POS they actually picked.

I think they talked about just those two stations because it is a NJ paper. I suspect the cuts will be broad based across all their markets.

As I was driving and listening to 1250 in Milwaukee today they suddenly cut to Amy Lawrence at 2. That was apparently a wrap on the entire local on air staff. Their schedule is now all national bullshit. I can't fucking wait to listen to zach gelb tomorrow morning.

I still can't believe TMJ lost the Packers after like a jillion years. That's as big as WGN losing the Cubs or KMOX losing the Cardinals (they came back).

I'm shocked that Milwaukee was able to support 3 sports talk stations. We only have two here and I'm pretty sure only about 10 people listen to ESPN Radio in this city.

Mitch Rosen took over dual roles of program director of the Score and the Fan Milwaukee in 2019. The Fans demise coupled with the Scores downward spiral can't look too good on his resume. I really think it's time to shut down the Score locally too. It'd open the door for a new fresher local sports radio venture and we'd be rid of current local Score hosts hopefully forever.

Pairing him with the Grim Reaper of sports talk show hosts careers know as Dan Bernstein is likely the coup de grace for Larry Holmes...it will just be a matter of time.

That also might be the size of The Score's current audience.

No, it would mean more BetQL nonsense.

It's interesting that Audacy is giving up the Bears, and that iHeart is competing against ESPN 1000/Good Karma by using one of its music stations. When the Cubs' deal is up, I think that will be the end of the Score, they'll let that go and then go national or go general talk soon after that.

Maybe as part of their move to Arlington Heights, the Bears will go to 92.7. Jeff Joniak and Dance Factory, together at last.

The world is definitely changing. The working class is mostly millenials now, and even they are aging out to genzies. None of these fucking people give any shits about anything other than Instagram and TikTok posts.
