  1. perhaps three people can do the work of six, when you appropriate the prep time needed to do one job well and slap an extra downsized job onto it. been there.

  2. This is a continuation of a decades-long trend toward mechanization, computerization, and larger combines replacing local media. Why? The economics have changed dramatically as consumers’ viewing and listening habits have changed.

    From Chad McKenzie (Chad Hohwieler)’s Facebook feed: “Hi, Chad Hohwieler here. Wow! I can now use my real last name (despite the fact it was the worst kept secret in town). From the bottom of my heart, thank you for all the kind words, messages, and phone calls over the past few days. People have been asking what’s next. I honestly don’t know. I’m open to career ideas and anxious to see what lies ahead. As they say, when God closes a door he opens another. Thanks again for caring. Take care my friends. Love to all.”

  3. Maybe if they sold more ads instead of having Don Jacobs lecture listeners every commercial breaks?
