KPNT is restructuring and consolidating it's on-air line up. As of
today, Thom West and Jeff Burton will no longer be employed by the
station. Each are long time employees that have done a good job for the
Point. Please join me in wishing both Thom and Jeff the best of luck in
the next stage of their careers.
Who's to blame? Tommy Mattern and likely KFTK's hate talker Dana Loesch as well.
However, I've heard Jeff Burton say it's due to budget cuts (presumably to either pay Loesch a bigger salary and/or the fatcats at Emmis HQ).
Schedule (M-F):
6-10AM: Woody and Rizzuto
10AM-2PM: Lux
2-6PM: Donnie Fandango (around Summer 2009, he was moved from 6-10A to 10A-2PM)
6-10PM: Drew
