Life After Radio: Just Like Starting Over

This isn't about local radio or TV, but I found it pretty interesting. It's the story of a longtime Montreal morning man forced to start over after being suddenly dumped by his station for financial reasons. Or as author Steve Faguy in the Montreal Gazette puts it about Bell,"Years of loyalty and hard work were dismissed because a company already making $8.5 billion a year needed to cut costs in its still profitable media division."

Anyway, like Humble and Fred, it's a look at how one man reinvented himself in an industry that seems to be shrinking a little bit more every day.

""Years of loyalty and hard work were dismissed because a company already making $8.5 billion a year needed to cut costs in its still profitable media division."

Is there ANYBODY working there in management not originally named
