RADIO WARS: Clever Peanut Butter References
Published:
Yesterday we wrote about Mike Missanelli’s claims that his former producer, Jon Marks, now doing afternoon drive at rival 94 WIP, uses anonymous Twitter accounts to spread rumors and rip 97.5 the Fanatic.
Mike made the comments Friday afternoon on his show.
Marks didn’t immediately acknowledge the allegations but crafted a cheeky response on Monday evening, changing his Twitter name to “Barbara Bottini,” a reference to the Bryan Colangelo burner account saga:
How’s everyone doing tonight?

Very Little Talent going on with the #Phillies offense today https://t.co/rKaTlq21Vl

The Skippy peanut butter in the profile picture is in response to Mike calling Marks “little Skippy” on his show. “Very little talent” is also a reference to Mike, who described Jon as a “VLT,” which is a term I had never heard until yesterday.
Anyway, good response by Marks. Lighthearted, witty, and creative.
Time’s yours.
