I was glad to see that Frosty, Heidi & Frank would no longer be on the radio in LA, their show was terrible. I will miss listening to Leykis though, Frank said that all the talent at KLSX agreed to take a pay cut to stay on the air but Leykis was the only host who would not take a pay cut. Tom's decision to not take a pay cut is what caused the format change according to Frank. However, Tom said Frank is a liar, he was never approached to take a pay cut and Tom challenged Frank to provide evidence that Tom was approached to take a pay cut.
Did he talk about model's information getting posted on Craigslist too, or did he skip over that topic like you did in the other thread?
I can not comment on accusations regarding some 3rd party talent some studio allegedly screwed over. What do you want from me? I am not in the broadcast department. I suggest you email them if you have a problem with talent. I am in the business of making affiliates money, not dealing with models.
If you have a personal problem with me lets get it out in the open right now, otherwise quit talking out the side of your neck.

It's not just LA radio this is happening to. Opie and Anthony lost a lot of their Citadel markets despite high ratings, because it was cheaper for Citadel to pay a low wage disc jockey to push buttons and play songs than it was to pay O+A's syndication fees. The bottom line is the ad market for radio stations is in the shitter, and if they can't sell ads it doesn't matter what your ratings are. I listen to Opie and Anthony on XM Sirius, but if XM Sirius goes bankrupt I don't know what I'll listen to...
Carolla should have stayed on Loveline with Dr. Drew. Him and Drew became too Hollywood. I can't even watch the celebrity rehab shit anymore...lost so much respect for Drew.
i might check out adam's podcast but i am not crazy about most of his rants though i believe he is a gifted with words.
listened to tom for a few years, but finally couldnt stand listening to the same shit over and over again, nothing new..

that can't possibly be true. they didn't decide to change the format of a radio station based on tom lykis. thats a massive change and those shows all made piles of money, were syndicated across the nation etc. the format change had nothing to do with the hosts or the affiliates that got fucked.

How dare you insult MY Dr Drew! I've had a crush on him since I used to be in highschool and I would smoke pot and listen to loveline every night.. Dr Drew is dreammmmy.. I want him to put me in rehab and bend me over his knee and spank me for being a bad little girl!!
The music they play on 97.1 is fn horrible. I've tuned in 3 diff times since the change and it was the same fn song all 3 times.. It was tradition for me to get a smoothie from Robeks and listen to Frosty Heidi n Frank on my long drive home from KB's 2x a week, now I have to listen to my IPOD, ugh

The ratings were good, Leykis was # 1 on dive time and they still have to pay them all for 10 months. Bad move IMO.
Yes, from what I hear, the ratings were good. However, KLSX was paying Tom Leykis, Adam Carolla, and all their other radio jockeys so much money, that is was not a profitable business in this economic environment.

they are still paying them

Right, from what I've heard, all of the main disc jockeys are having their contracts honored through 2008, but only because KLSX has to honor those contracts or face lawsuits. All of the co-hosts only get two week severance packages.

teresea strausser (sp?) is getting paid until the end of the year
That process started when Album rock station KMET changed to "new jazz" KTWV and when the Metal capital of southern california, KNAC changed to a Mexican banda music station. I hated the latter at first then actually began to like banda/corrido music. Los Tigres Del Norte!
Just goes to show you, don't shut your mind to anything just because it's new, you might be missing out on something good.
I'm the model in question and it really isn't that exciting. Just a Video Secrets studio manager in Toronto acting like a 12 year old even though he is in his late 30s. Apparently he believes he 'owns' craigslist and all the models who worked for him over the years.
I'm rather busy and not interested in being involved in grade school pranks, so the best approach is to just ignore him. It is just a pity because Video Secrets is a great company in all other aspects.

But move along now, there really is no drama here
You're playing it down way too much, considering your safety is involved. You have a kinder heart than I do to VS for how it was handled. ;)

That is because Tom was also offered a huge deal to go to satellite which he turned down for even more money. Reason being his audience would shrink if he went and once you leave terrestrial radio it is like being a mainstream actress and doing porn. You are considered dirty and no one wants you back...
Tom is a marketing genius... Now he can go satellite and make double the cash... That is if CBS will take his offer to pay him 80% of the remainder of the contract so he can go.
