KGO Radio PD Hosely texts hosts even when On-Air

So, imagine hosting a radio show and getting a text from the PD saying you're doing a crappy job. Or something to that effect.

Well, one of my moles informs me that KGO News and Program director, Paul Hosely, has does precisely that. Both KGO and KSFO too. And it has happened more than once. Moreover, one text made its way to veteran KSFO show host, Melanie Morgan, (this despite the fact that Morgan's ratings have shot up the roof since she returned to the airwaves nearly a year ago).

It's SOP that air talent receive feedback from their respective bosses. It it NOT SOP that one gets  a text in the middle of their show. Then again, consider the source. Hosely might be feeling the heat from his boss. KGOne is getting killed. We know that. But I mean, they're really getting killed. Their CUME is declining faster than Facebook stock. They're getting beat to death by everyone and vast effort to get the "younger demo" has failed miserably.

Text that.
