tolly

QIsn't Tolly still on 950 am?
don, devon, PA  02/25/09
A

That's absolutely correct. He has a show from 10 a.m. to noon Saturdays.

Majolica: Phoenixville

QMichael,

Do you know what happened with Majolica? I just heard they are closing after this weekend? :(
Ed, Pottstown, PA  02/25/09
A

Yes. The economy has done them in. See my blog post here.

Jeff Skversky

QDo my eyes deceive me? I saw him on 6 ABC last night doing a sports report, but wasn't he on Fox 29 news not too long ago?
Shellsy, Philly, PA  02/24/09
A

No deception. In a rare move of hiring someone who had face time on another Philadelphia station, 6ABC hired Skversky a few weeks ago. He interned at 6ABC awhile back.

WPHT

QHey Mike,

Have you heard if WPHT plans to start carrying Fred Thompson's show after he succeeds the Radio Factor starting next week? I really hope not!
Justin, Voorhees, NJ  02/19/09
AYou win. Fred Thompson will not join the WPHT lineup. The station is airing a taped version of Michael Smerconish's syndicated two-hour show in the 12m-2a time slot.

Holiday ratings for WNUW

QI know in the November numbers, WNUW was within striking distance of B101 in their target demo. How did they do in the Holiday book? And have you seen any weeklies? Are they holding their own? Thanks!
EGill, South Philly, PA  02/19/09
A

I did a back-of-the-envelope analysis of the November-December-Holiday books in INQlings on Feb. 3. The January numbers are due next week. I largely ignore the weeklies because they're ..  weeklies.

How soon ?

QHow soon can Diego join Chio (based on any non-compete contract at Clear Channel)?
William Westerheimer, Cape May, NJ  02/16/09
A"Could join Chio" is the operative phrase, because nothing is final. Of course, nothing could be final, because of Diego's three-month noncompete.

todd zolecki

QDo you know who will be covering the Phillies now?
dan, PA  02/12/09
AThe very fine Jim Salisbury for the short-term, I hear.
Michael Klein

Diego

QHey Michael, do you think Justice's firing is paving the way for Diego to be reunited with Chio?
Mark, Havertown, PA  02/09/09
A

Diego could be on his way back to Chio's side, as I suggested when Q102 released Diego. The only rub is that Justice and Diego are not quite interchangeable parts. Justice was Chio's producer as well as his sidekick. Diego's main skill is playing the wiseguy/fool/foil/man on the street, not the traditional producer's roles of booking guests and running the show.

Michael Klein

Justice

QWhy was justice let go from wired 96.5? Do you think this opens the door for Diego?
anonymous, Cherry Hill, NJ  02/09/09
A

You can check my blog entry at http://go.philly.com/insider for the story. Although I think Diego may end up again with Chio, I don't think it's one-for-one trade. Justice was Chio's producer, and Diego is more of a man-in-the-street/goofball show character.

Todd Zolecki

QMichael,
Where is Todd Zolecki the phillies beat writer for the inquirer heading. He said Sunday was his last day
Chris, Pottstown, PA  02/02/09
ATodd left for MLB.com, where he'll cover the Phillies.
