Booker Show Off The Air At Q102
May 23, 2008
For the second consecutive week a high profile morning show in Philadelphia is off the air as The Booker Show is out at Clear Channel Top 40 WIOQ (Q102). "Booker is off-the-air," PD Rick Vaughn tells FMQB. "We are exploring programming options. For now, we are playing more music." It was a week ago that Kidd Chris was fired from CBS Radio rocker WYSP.
A Clear Channel/Q102 spokesperson, Loraine Ballard Morrill, told the Philadelphia Daily News that Booker wasn't fired and is still considered an employee of the station. But Morrill did confirm that morning producer Blaire Galaton and co-host Angi Taylor were no longer Clear Channel employees. As for long time co-host/sidekick Diego Ramos, he remains with the station in an undetermined position.
