Update: Gene Burns did not suffer a stroke; Bay Area Talker back on 'NewsTalk' 910 next week

There were reports posted that Bay Area broadcaster, Gene Burns, suffered a "mild stroke." He did not.

Burns, who has been in fragile health on and off the past year, has a medical condition, (which isn't known, but according to one of his assistants, nothing as serious as a stroke).

Furthermore, Burns is expected back next week to debut his show on "NewsTalk", 910 AM from 4-7 PM, (ex-KGOers are filling in this week).

Note: As I indicated Monday, here, I had heard that Burns suffered a medical condition, but out of privacy concerns and respect to Mr. Burns, I chose to keep the matter confidential. After reading a post, (that was incorrect, it turns out), I reluctantly posted the account. My sincerely apology to Mr. Burns. I wish him a full and speedy recovery.
