RADIO WARS: Intercepted Cables

The maestro has intercepted lots of chatter going back and forth in this prolonged, sustained, and increasingly ugly war. A recent insurgency has changed the landscape, the theater, the ground rules.

Thanks to fragmented fighting, this post has been broken up into shorter sections.

 

Racism, the flag and “Teats”

This is mostly self-explanatory:

Teats, I would assume, is Josh Innes.

Yesterday, Teats (this might stick) went on a bit of a crusade about something something the south and the Confederate flag. Quite honestly I’m not sure if he was being serious or his usual sarcastic self, but it ended with him tweeting a picture of a Nazi hunting mask. Hence Missanelli’s accusation.

 

Rehab

Blowing more fuel onto the fire, Missanelli, during his show yesterday, somewhat out of the blue, made this cryptic statement:

“General knowledge trivia’s been tough today for the people. I know there’s a lot of people that couldn’t say no to rehab. [pause]  Some people, even in this business, some people become a train wreck and they have to go to rehab. [pause] You’ll probably read about that in the next couple of days.”

Based on conversations with numerous sources, Missanelli is talking about a rival employee whose name has been whispered about in radio circles for the past week or so. We won’t post it. But look out, only Mike seems to be threatening to go public with it.

 

Coke

Reader Kevin captured audio of Innes Teats somewhat mercilessly mocking a caller’s coke problem and even offering to do blow with him:

It’s tough to listen to, especially at the end when Innes offers to have a “cocaine summit” with him.

Tony Bruno, clearly, wasn’t on board with the conversation and seemed sincerely concerned for the guy by the end of the call. This is the new Sportsradio, WIP.

 

No respect

Poor Rob Ellis– can’t catch a break:
