WRC's Jim Vance has died


morning traffic

Recommended Posts

I would personally go with Leon Harris or Jim Handly.

 

My money is on Jim Handly.

 

Jim Handly already anchors at 5&11. I doubt they'll give him the 6 too unless he's moved off one of the other shows. My bets are on Leon Harris (he was the most frequent fill-in prior to Vance's death) with Chris Lawrence considered a long shot.

Or you can just keep cost down and go with somebody from the outside.

I know that will ring unpopular with the old school...but management is looking at this in dollars...not long term loyalty.

 

Why renegotiate contracts and pay MORE..??

 

And when the outrage ensues...the station management will say...

 

"There was just nobody that could ever replace Jim"....bla bla..

 

And we will believe them.

 

Nine months down the line... the new hip metrosexual anchor will be quietly replaced by Leon or Jim....or whoever got dissed in this round.

 

Cuz that's how they operate.
