Kiss off, he's Imus

>>WTKK-FM (96.9) program director Grace Blazer wouldn’t comment on the 2009 dust-up (w/ Jay). She said WTKK isn’t airing Imus’ show in its entirety anymore, so having him host his St. Patrick’s Day show in Boston “just didn’t make sense for us this year.”

Either reason makes sense to me as why they won't do it.

At this rate, Imus could be gone from WTKK by year's end. Wasn't the "Kiss Me, I'm Imus" thing wildly popular in Boston in years past?

he still has a show?

Yeah he's on a 490 watt AM flame-thrower in Hartford.  I don't know if they have Pre-Sunrise Authority or not, but if it doesn't they're at a  massive 11 watts until 7:15AM in December.

Last yr, Severin gets slapped down by Imus (w/ great pic)

>>But yesterday, the feud boiled over, with Imus threatening to shoot Severin if he didn't get off the Wilbur's stage...He said Imus's producer beckoned him to speak to the host, and that he squatted down to hear Imus better. "He looked right at me and said, 'Get the [expletive] off the stage or I will shoot you,' " he said.

For the record, Imus is still having his annual "Kiss Me, I'm Imus" shindig - it just won't be from Boston this year:
