So Chris Booker, the disc jockey who spawned a million gossip items, has been ousted as morning host from Q102. The Clear Channel station is aiming for a more music-intensive program, the Inquirer's Michael Klein reports.
Hmmm, isn't radio supposed to be music intensive in the first place?
Booker and girlfriend, former anchorbabe Alycia Lane, now can spend all their time together as both are no longer clotting the airwaves.
The couple seems incapable of leaving home without letting a gossip columnist know about it. Lane, when she was at CBS 3, once texted a reporter during a station break. She spoke to Dr. Phil about her relationship woes. She manages to get into New York tabloids on a fairly regular basis. She takes a very pretty picture.
Despite gameful employment, it's a safe bet that the two will continue to bold face their way into our lives as the American Idol-version of television newsreading and radio blather. Who knows where they will surface next?
My guess (an educated one as a corporate PR manager) --- the station was sick of the attachment to Alycia, and some of the things he's said on air about it. And all the clippings, of course. It's my opinion that if he dumped Alycia after her problems/broke up with her early during her troubles/kept a low profile with her afterwards, he would still be in the station's employ. Curious to see if Booker speaks out - which he will not if he is contemplating legal action. I hope she is worth it.— Big Al 2008- Never before have two mediocre talents received this much play in this city. It's a poor reflection on us, that's for sure...— Domenic

- 'Gameful' -That's funny. Karen, I'm happy to see you are on-line. Now start Twittering! (I'm PurpleCar on Twitter.) I don't follow these two and their silliness. I moved to XM radio over a year ago. Maybe they should move to NYC.— PurpleCar
