Ex-KNBR PD Bob Agnew hired as new PD of LA's KLAA

Bob Agnew, who brought the sports talk format to KNBR way back in 1989, has landed a gig at LA's KLAA. The station is the flagship outlet for the LA Angels. Agnew is PD.

Agnew devised a highly successful format that was foreign turf to many Bay Area radio listeners. His plan to format sports talk during the day, at the time, seemed illogical but became a very successful venture and vaulted KNBR into the sports domain.

Not all of his business savvy worked.

Agnew was fired in 2005 from KNBR over an incident involving racial slurs about Giants manager, Felipe Alou. The slurs were broadcast by Larry Krueger, also was also let go.

Krueger was rehired in August, 2011.
