Larry Olson, the occasionally hilarious and talented weekend sports broadcaster on
KGO Radio was
fired Friday--Olson got his walking papers from one of the lower-level "
market managers"--which in
Cumulus speak is: "
Go grab 'yo stuff and get on out!"
I don't know if Olson's blow-out (and others coming soon) is a precursor to the demise of the weekend news (Sat/Sun--5-10 AM) but it sure doesn't bode well for the
810 AM albatross.

I haven't heard Larry Olson on KGO for a long time. Hasn't Bruce McGowan been doing weekend sports?
ReplyDeleteHilarious & Talented? Not to me, but that's why they make chocolate & vanilla. I thought Olson sounded like a total idiot. Fuck You, Olson. Take your Happy Horseshit & get the hell out of here.
ReplyDeleteOlson is a good guy but far from talented Rich.
