CBS Radio Layoffs

Submitted by LynnS on Fri, 08/15/2008 - 9:34am.

As reported here in the comments and at PDXRadio, the CBS Radio stations here in town have begun layoffs in advance of the expected sale of most if not all of the Portland cluster. Reports so far are that KUFO MD and midday guy Dan Bozyk is gone as of yesterday, along with KHits morning show team Dave Hood and Carol Batchelor.

The layoff list is assumed to be larger, though. Anyone have the full scoop?

If these radio stations can continue to operate without all these ex-employees, why did those stations need them in the first place?

Thank you Mr. Axe Man for you comment! Wait till you get canned someday.
