Friday 415 Media Extra: Papa/Lund Doo-Doo; Ann Killion Blocks Like a Man; KRON Dysfunction Continues; Baer Still Pivots on Giants' SOMA Development; Jan Wahl Waddle at KCBS; Tadich Bad Boy-Bad Girl

*KRON got murdered in the November Sweeps; they posted respectable ratings early evening but nothing of substance was achieved and their long-term future is more up in the air than a Concorde. 

KRON has been getting by on excuses when most of their reset could be accomplished with a makeover, namely tweaking their outdated music and changing graphics. The music simply sucks, a vagabond jingle that sounds like 1980 with a K-Tel element. Worse yet, their packages are so amateur, so rank awful it's simply unwatchable. But that's KRON: an innate ability to screw up some decent reporting --now they have another excuse: corporate malfeasance and an owner that doesn't believe in proper economic structure. Then GET OUT OF BUSINESS! It's sickening to watch this Titanic and their lawn furniture, banana-eating embarrassment in the morning. What an insult. What a paltry display of nincompoops. KRON, a visual doo-doo fest.

Ann Killion

*YES, Greg Papa practices his touchdown call. Bizarrely, yes, even at the company Christmas party and remarkably, at the 49ers Christmas party on Thursday night. Papa thinks his feces doesn't stink right now which is all well and good until his arrogance costs one party or both lots of lawyers and crummy stuff. Want to know why he has so many jobs? Because he needs lots of cash to pay for sloppy seconds and unexpected female fatigue. When you hunt in the forest and acquire lots of tail, you have to pay the pauper. So while watching Papa, and his sidekick scooper, the revolting and equally obnoxious John Lund, take a break and consider the real deal. 

*Larry Baer is more attuned about making land deals near the stadium as opposed to conducting face-of-franchise decisions around the Giants. His public profile is diminished because of PC-smitten SF; a good reason why the GM, Farhan Zaidi is doing the retro dirty work. See, Larry can stay away and claim he had nothing to do with the 2020 makeover which will result in wholesale change and a three to five year rebuild. That's a tough sell in a big event place like SF but it's the master plan now. 

Jan Wahl

*Ann Killion: a sturdy hypocrite and a phony at that--she is quick to condemn and throw out accusations --the Chronicle is waiting for her to say goodbye because she's on the raw end of 55 and buying time before the curtains close and she has to go to a local radio station and hunt for young theeings. Killion likes to think of herself as a MILF but she's more a sloppy yenta from Marin who doesn't know how to make coffee at midnight. Ann, you go keep on blocking. Your time is up --maybe you should throw out the green stamps.

*Getting worse by the day, the incomprehensibly awful, pathetic, boring and unspeakable bore known as Jan Wahl. Does KCBS hear this monotonous glutton for punishment, embarrassing carcass? She's about as serene as a Lodi 7-Eleven. Can't bear to hear her which is why I TURN THE DIAL when I hear her tones. OY-VEY! 

*Sad face, eternal hemorrhoid-look, Tom Vacar at KTVU --the world is ending and Vacar has been given orders to evacuate the neighborhood only Vacar causes another alert. Tom is lucky he's a lawyer on the side and KTVU is weary of his ability to sue based on age discrimination because, truly, his diarrhea demeanor is more akin to Tulsa than the Bay Area.

*THESE takes you will never read anywhere else because the bosses and their corporate brethren are AFRAID of backlash; these are my opinions and I take full responsibility for their public airing. If you want more of these and can't stand the vanilla wafer Chronicle (and other venues) then SUBSCRIBE HERE NOW.

*Papa, your 2020 zipper play-by-play man.

Reset? Reflex too. Call the vomit police.

*Want some adventure? Head to Tadich on Monday around noon and take a path to the back room and see a couple of danger zone: namely, a man, big-top exec with a station in and around the Battery/Broadway media TV gulch with a much younger woman half his age throwing down vodka gimlets -should be a helluva show.

*Listen to Papa's voice and tell me he's half human with the gargle-voice and giggle --it sounds so goofy and manufactured I'm beginning to regurgitate when I hear this crappola. What a DISGRACE!
