Recently, at the FM100.3 Christmas miniconcerts, Brian Foxx told me that Bill West, their PD for about 5 years, had left their station about 2 months ago, and that Kelly Hammer had come on as the brand manager. They aren't calling Kelly exactly the replacement PD, though. And Kelly isn't a talent guy, so they've had some other guy (whose name Brian has told me but which I had forgotten) fill in as talent until... (see next story above)...!
It would be nice if we could know why Bill left, if for no more reason than curiosity--just like I was curious why Dain Craig, the guy who was PD there before him--left....
Happy Christmas!

Hey, thanks for those links.
Well, what's interesting is that I got told that Bill was replaced by Kelly--but then told that Kelly's job is different from Bill's. So if that's the case, then who's the PD that sifted out through all of this?
Oh, did I not read the article from one of those links? Hang on a second...

Yep, I went back and read, of the two articles whose links you posted, the one I hadn't already seen; and just as I suspected: no detail in those articles that gives me the answers to my latest questions. But anyway, Seattle Flower, that's obviously not your fault. Thank you for posting those links!
Yeah, so Bill is still at 100 as a "lame duck." I suspect he probably was not fired as PD, but has decided to move elsewhere himself. If he had been fired, he probably would not want to stay there and help Kelly out! I don't think I would!
But I wonder where he's going next....
Merry Christmas!

OK, I can't find the article anymore, I think it was "Burger with Relish" as part of the Salt Lake Tribune - he spoke with an executive at Deseret Media and he said they were eliminating the PD positions of KSFI and KRSP to change over to a "product brand manager" over both stations. So, basically, Sue and Bill's jobs were combined into one person. |
