Beasley Layoffs: Paul Jaxon Out at WMMR
Beasley Media Group is going through a round of layoffs that saw Jamie Lynch depart 97.5 the Fanatic last week.
There were a few other cuts, notably WMMR afternoon host Jaxon, who confirmed his exit on Facebook:
Jaxon had been hosting at WMMR for a long time, most recently afternoons following Pierre Robert. They’ve got a couple of candidates to do his shift, like Brent Porche, Sara, or maybe Jacky Bam Bam is finally allowed to see the sunlight and removed from graveyard shift. Salvation! Or maybe he likes doing that shift, you never know.
As far as I know, the Philly cuts are Jamie Lynch, Jaxon, Charlie Maxx at WXTU, Dave Gibson (DeBella’s producer), and then some behind the scenes people. It’s shitty all around, but the radio business is absolutely brutal.
