[Radio outsider]

This is what I see happening.....

Jerry O'Neil teaming up with Brady Ackerman and hiring a well known former CC on-air personality/producer as their producer.

Look, jerry cared to much to just quit.  CK is trying to save his own job. He put people in
bad places , and they left. Saves his rather larger A@@.  It's well known here. so dont bring that
" i know whats going on, because i listen" you have no idea, what it's like to walk these halls.
and CK only cares about himself.   otherwise, what does he really do?

I'm not sure who you were referring to with the "no idea what its like to walk these halls", because I have walked those halls.  This had nothing to do with CK and his salary. Yes, Jerry got put in a bad place, but was only put in that place because he is an asset to CC.  If they wanted to truly "wish him well in his future endeavors" why did the Finish Line even end up on 540?  Because they wanted to keep him.  Can you imagine talking to an audience that doesn't want to hear about sports and then also, trying to sell advertising for a station you're not passionate about? (because Jerry is all about passion)  Jerry's not a quiter, so he didn't quit.  He definitely didn't get fired, because they would have loved to keep him.  The recent events (that were bigger than CK) were taxing for everyone there - I'm not sure how anyone can put on a smile and walk those halls.  Jerry had enough and deserves better.

anyone remember CK when he was doing evenings on WLOF, late 70s.....as TC Dooley..............he was very good. i was in high school.


i guess he lost his soul to the corporate world and has forgotten how much fun radio was for him.

Well you better do Jerry a favor and let him know he cared too much to quit, and therefore he shouldn't have quit. It's obvious you harbor some grudge against management in Maitland, and you can blame CK, LB, CKY, Y2K, the YMCA, or WHOEVER but if you are trying to claim that you are walking these halls in CC Maitland....the take your fingers out of your ears and start listening - you might learn a thing or two.

Skrape, i am so dissapointed with you.  you know better, dont be a shill.
look at the above poster's, they know.  lost souls to save own A$$.  Now get off that
computer, they are watching in the room across from Mexican music madness 740.
And ream the posters above me, seems they agree. But dont be a LB /CK kool-aide guy.

ThaT is what is going to happen. I hear it will be this upcoming Monday. Jan 21. Now if only if 1080/1060 will get rid of Ackerman again and replace him with Steve egan ESPN Orlando will have a great Afternoon sports show.

Jerry is a sales rep for Clear Channel and has had some health issues, doubt you will see him on the air with with another radio group in Orlando

Chris K. appears to be running 2500 into the ground, he makes Buddy Bud Paxson seem like Mel Karmazin.  That's great news about Jerry and Stunning Steve going to ESPN, except 1080 has slighty more watts then a light bulb.  It's a great move Clear Channel turning a 50,000 watt station to Mexican oldies!  What narrow casting bud!

Steve Egan is making money hand over fist with the Atlanta Braves so he will not be back. It will be Jerry, Brady and a very talented, yet underrated producer of Jerry's choosing (HOPEFULLY!!!)
