List of cuts market by market the Borg made

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

This doesn't list every market, including Louisville. Rumor abound that this was company wide to one extent or another.

Hot Damn! Is there anyone left in LA to see if the top light is on the transmitter tower is flashing at night.

And didn't T-Bag work with some of the folks on this board (cough, cough), Zak?

And I guess the usual KISS VT'ed morning crap is going to be playing in Chi-Town.

Sad, Sad, Sad.

Just that list by itself isn't an axe, it's a table saw powered by a riding lawnmower engine. Are there cuts not listed?

technically we never worked for the same company, but most of the people he worked for over at Entercom, are now running things over here. i'm one of the few remaining from our Barnstable days.

He did do 1 airshift on my station after Entercom let him go though.

Rumor has it this was across the board, especially at major and large markets. Here is a story about the Louisville cuts.
