Sounds like KTVU (fox2) news. All fake, filler talk. "But, but, Mark is it really going to rain ? " We sure need that with the drought right Mark ? How much rain Mark ? really? .............Shuuut Up F-2
Highlights of the Cumulus earnings (actually loss) conference:
"Cumulus experienced 48% turnover over the past 18 months, the vast majority of which was voluntary. That's over 2,000 people walking out the door." MUST BE A NICE PLACE TO WORK, NO?
"our principal business is broadcast advertising sales" SELLING WHAT? CRAP PROGRAMMING, THAT'S WHAT.
"In the quarter our broadcast advertising revenue declined by 4.3% to $275.3 million from $287.6 million in Q3 of 2014. Local spot was essentially flat to $171 million from $171.6 million a year ago, and national spot declined by 10.9% to $26.5 million from $29.7 million in Q3 of last year." APPARENTLY YOU ARE NOT VERY **GOOD** AT SELLING ADVERTISING. OR, PERHAPS IT'S THE PRODUCT YOU ARE TRYING TO SELL?
So, let's cost-cut our way to success, right? "This company has lost more than a dollar of revenue for every dollar of expense reduction over the past four years" OOPS! MAYBE FIRING THE HIGHER COST TALENT WAS A MISTAKE, NO?
Bottom line:
"And lastly, you may have seen this morning that we released an 8-K announcing that we received a letter from the NASDAQ highlighting our noncompliance with their minimum listing standards by having a share price below $1 for greater than 30 consecutive days. We have entered into a 180-day initial grace period during which we can regain compliance by achieving a stock price greater than $1 for more than 10 consecutive business days."
WLS-AM Chicago personality Jonathan Brandmeier, who works the same shift that Ronnnnnnn does on KGO here, said a couple of weeks ago on the air that Cumulus was going bankrupt and that he was funding listener contests out of his own pocket. Pretty sad.
Who is this dweeb anyway? That's rhetorical question. But the business of broadcasting has been going to the dogs because fools like this guy are ruining it. He couldn't make it on the air, but guess what? Management thinks he knows enough of the on-air part of the profession to be some kind of an expert. This fool sounds like a self-absorbed, egotistical, blowhard. Typical of the kind of dreck that Cumulus hires. Oh well, I guess it's true…the turds always float to the top of the toilet bowl.
He is a turd that's for sure. What's really annoying is that stupid fake voice as if he's carrying so much authority in each word, fact is McVay rarely programmed any top stations, he might take the lowest ranked Adult Contemporary station out of 4, and move them up a notch by creating a super short playlist and some moronic line such as "The station you can enjoy at work and play" and drilling that 200 times an hour. After a year or so the audience is so burned out, the station drops back into last place. How Cumulus could fall this clown is amazing.
Somebody who has had "work done" and an obviously fake tan is telling you to not be a faker? Everyone associated with this collection of mouth breathers are phonies. Gag ... gag ... barf.
Was consulted by this tool at a station in a galaxy far, far away. It was a ZZ Top/Led Zeppelin station. My favorite memory was when he faxed (!) us a memo saying that, on the first day of spring, we should cart (!!) up a "boinnng" sound and say "Spring has sprung" a lot. Cute, huh? Especially in his weekend T-shirt. And he's right, you can sniff out a phony right away. He's really stinking up your blog, Rich!
What a Tard, and he looks like my big fat ass...ASS!!!
ReplyDeleteChrist Almighty, someone put this fuck out of his misery PRONTO!

ReplyDeleteHe hired Randall Bloomquist in Atlanta then sent him to San Francisco. What more needs to be said?
