Metro blew out a number of local traffic/sports voices, including Ryan Leong plus Bob Pryor, long time traffic producer and Vanessa Gil, Saturday PM KCBS traffic anchor. In addition, Christine Samra, a weekend overnight KCBS traffic anchor was pink-slipped.
This wasn't a big surprise as ClearChannel's been rumored to let go a number of people since buying the traffic service. And they have, and it's not only here in the Bay Area.
*Gene Burns has confirmed his latest health setback to his listeners. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't expect to Burns to return anytime soon to the airwaves. Some think he'll never return.
A number of factors points to the conclusion that Burns, according to a local source, won't be back. His age, his relentless health issues and its effect on his body, not to mention a plethora of medication. Here's hoping to a speedy recovery.
