IT CAN GET A NEW SET, wonderful, I'm sure the natives are just damn joyful, HA!, Ha, ha, yeah right like the joy of anal warts! The truth and not the bullshit spewing at KRON with a workforce royally pissed off and only showing up to work because they need to feed their family.
The TRUTH is this: KRON is still as Fucked up as ever with a shitty news product and a contempt for its rank and file. People that still man the ship and try to keep it afloat before it dives further into the abyss. KRON is rudderless and a new set of furniture will DO NOTHING to amp up morale. It's like having a bunch of fillings and your dentist pays no attention to the other cavities in your mouth. KRON was/is still a Titanic of the SF Bay Area.
It doesn't act--it reacts. It has ZERO leadership. It will be an eternal LOSER until its idiots free its soul from the MORON little man and HIS ENABLER are shown the door. Like yesterday. That won't happen and the natives know that. They know that they have to work in a SUCK environment until their SCREAMING lunatic is set off the chain and sent back on a one-way ticket to Toledo, where he can scream and be relevant there. SHE TOO. The Supreme YENTA!
*Here's the deal about NBC Layoffs here and nationally: they make ZERO SENSE which dictates why NBC continues to chop, chop, chop. An industry guy told ne that even the threats of human layoffs was just as good as the actual layoffs themselves--I said, "really? WTF?"!! In corporate geek, yeah, they love their staffers to have complete fear of their impending doom even if they don't actually don't get the kaboom. How wonderful that must resonate with their employees, what abunch of ASSHOLES at 30 Rock.
*KNBR/Cumulus has the CHUTZPAH to run maudlin, Ralph Barbieri promos for a day, honoring, (yeah, sure) their fallen hero --and then? Kaboom! NOT ONE MORE MENTION! Here they are, making money off website "tributes" and then calling off the "tribute" as if they had enough and now, it's back to that wonderful, "Giants Replay." What a fucking crock of shit and how PATHETIC a station and company honor a man who they FIRED and made him, (Barbieri) leave the building under armed guards dressed in black. Yeah, that's not on the promo loop! Nor is the former asshole, Bill Bungerroth, who was made to de-credit everything there was about Barbieri's profile. Yeah, again, you didn't hear that at the Cumulus SF Cluster.
*Add Barbieri-related Bullshit: The Giants' tandem of both Brian Sabean, their GM, and Larry Baer, their owner/front man, HATED Ralph! HATED HIM! The fact these bozos were allowed to SPEW OUT UTTER BULLSHIT and proclaim FALSE PRAISE about Ralph on the day he died is a TOTAL FARCE! How pathetic, how abysmal and YOU GUYS should know the TRUTH! They treat you like a bunch of idiots and they think your stupid. You should know that the next time to listen to anal-breath, Paulie Mac, the FAKE GUY with the FAKE Jersey accent whose life was created so he can play fake sound bites and impress the morally bankrupt PD, Mr. Jerry Crpwe and his fake persona.
*I'm JUST GETTING STARTED...
*Yeah, conjure up the idea of having a brew with Jeremiah Crowe, the esteemed leader of KNBR who tried to screw the guy that basically was the glue of the old KNBR: Lee Hammer. There's no love lost there. Crowe is your basic common Cumulus ASSHOLE, a guy so cheap, he saves the Subway Sandwich paper so he can scribble notes on why his night pupil, Mark Willard, so thoroughly SUCKS . Yeah, that a great $300K investment. You could have bought 12 Brian Murphys and Paulie Macs for hat money.
*Crowe has the personality of a week-old kumquat. How do I know? Because there's a certain TV Sports Guy on KNBR that does fill-in and told me so. Apparently, Crowe's secret orgasm is to play golf with Murph (Brian) and Tom Tolbert and tell them how terrific they are. Every week! That's a guy I want to go to war with, great way to rally the troops behind the glass.
*Speaking of which, dear Mr. Tolbert: I thought you hated it when one of your "fellas" consistently kisses your ass each afternoon. Or was Mr. Krueger's account to a fella, wrong? Inquiring minds want to know.
*Tolbert is interested in the news but had to leave the building because his 3000th case of Pliny beer arrived at the house in Alameda. "What ISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS Shaking?" More free beer.
*John Lund --the 53 year-old potty-mouth co-host of a once-respected sports program --Lund brags about how many places he's worked at and how many PD's he's been able to fool. Good omen as he will soon find out on his next gig in Provo, Utah. The award is mighty, Lund, and it plays no favorites even after a decent July book.
I AM CORNHOLIO! Need TP for my Bungerroth!
ReplyDeleteRich, you just don't see the writing on the wall. KRON is getting a new set because they are raking in TONS of money from their subscription service "KRON ON", it's only $29.99 a year. They're making so much money that they need somewhere to spend it. Yes it's the sweet smell of money, money, money all over KRON.
ReplyDeleteI hope they take care of the latest weather posts on the lower left hand corner of their screen. They currently show the same weather for Concord, Pittsburg and Walnut Creek. I don't know about Pittsburg, but Concord and Walnut Creek should NOT be the same....when I look on my Iphone "Weather App" the temperatures are usually NOT the same.
ReplyDeleteThere right next to each other. Good enough. Back in the the weather reports consisted of temp's in San Jose, Concord, Santa Rosa, and San Francisco. We survived
ReplyDeleteCrowe is your basic common Cumulus ASSHOLE
ReplyDeleteNo truer words have ever been uttered
Except perhaps Ryan Covay
Ryan Covay was terrible on KNBR. Then he leaves KNBR for another stations and becomes pretty good. What does that tell you about Lee Hammer's influence at KNBR?
DeleteI stopped listening to KNBR when Ralph left. Cumulus sucks. Tolbert sucks. Larry Baer sucks. It was once great.
ReplyDeleteI like KRON bc its not the others. Cute weathergirl bouncing around in 1000 dresses.
