Since I have been "discharged" from service at Sunny 106.5, I have kinda kept it quiet about my dealings with the company, (Cumulus) after I was walked out the door by HR Person Nancy Zito like a criminal. By now you have heard the stations transition for 106.5 to 103.1 with John Boy and Billy in the Morning and Album Rock....Don't you fans of Oldies just love the music? And how about all that information we used to give you in the morning? Or how about the opportunity for you to be a part of the show, on hear information on what events were happening around the area.
I'm sitting here 90 days since my release and I still cannot believe Market Manager Layne Ryan talked the Corporate Boys into such a "screw up". Hey how about that research on name the new Country station "The Wolf" with another "Wolf" coming into Georgetown and Southern Horry County from Charleston. So now Hooooooowwwwwwlllllll! they are the Coyote.
In a letter I have from Cumulus Corporate Attorney Richard Denning, Mr. Denning claims I was also cut to lower the overhead on talent and save money. So what do they do, run the John Boy and Billy Show costing twice as much as I was making "live" with ratings.

SonIC!
Cume-You-Less still hasn't learned that their brilliant "business decisions" lose more and more money every time...
You did SO much for the community.
Just a couple of the other things you were involved with: the fund raiser to take the Veterans to visit the memorial and all your work for Jessie's Law ... things that MATTER to "real people".
Cume-You-Less lost more than "local information" in the mornings with your departure. They lost community involvement and human compassion.
QUESTION: were they already locked into John Boy & Billy on their country incarnation of 103.1?
I thought I had seen it all, until I saw all of this unravel first-hand.
It was quite amazing to watch this cluster sink into the abyss.
It truly is the local radio version of "Titanic."
R.I.P. Sunny 106.5
Lou did so much for everyone and Cumulus made a big mistake letting him go, an error that will be almost impossible to undo. I have now turned back to Gator 107.9, a reborn country girl, I hate Coyote 103.1, has to be the worst.
I miss Lou in the morning...I hate the new format that Cumulus has done. I now listen to other stations as I don't like how they've destroyed 106.5...it's disgusting! I totally admire what Lou is doing re: landscaping our highways...he's so dedicated. He's a victim...makes me so sad.
Lou, I miss you too! I totally agree with Frank Barnhill...it's a sinking ship! I miss the entertainment and information you provided - plus, I miss doing the news for you.
