Boston Herald Confirms Rumors About WBZ 1030AM Overnight Host Steve LeVeille Laid-Off

Jobs cuts have extended into talk radio. Well according to the Boston Herald, the rumors of deep cuts at WBZ 1030 AM have indeed proven true. Inside source claims sports anchor Tom Cuddy, overnight host Steve LeVeille, as well as weekend talkers Lovell Dyett and Pat Desmarais have all been sacked.

It this proves to be completely true, it’s a sad day for WBZ. The station had a mammoth overnight signal reaching many states and provinces, it’s hard to believe the station would resort to syndication or infomercials in those hours. It’s more evidence of the extreme nature of the media’s meltdown. Wow. LaVeille will be in hot demand, so I think his downtime will be short.

We are living in scary times and I am hopeful that the tide will turn for the better in 2009.
