Allan Sniffen is reporting that Scotty has gotten the ax....howcanIdamanwhenyoudaman...shakeitup... Take it for what it's worth. He was off the air today, and he was supposed to be on vacation, but he doesn't usually report erroneous info, and he's got mucho contacts in the biz. This totally sucks if it's true, I really think he was doing a better show than Stern the last 3 months.

Yeah, im not tapped into the info syndicate, but Ferrall did say all last week that he was goin on vaction and that the other pantload was filling in.
Plus, if he got canned, would Angelo and Olive still be on? Just wondering...

My guess is this will be the last week of talk at wnew and they will probably debut a new format around Labor day. I think since Ron and Fez have ratings they are trying to figure out what to do with them.

WHAT THE "F" IS GOING ON??? Is the entire station going show by show?

Sports Updates: Angelo give you everything you need to know about what happened in sports before you even pick up the paper. Updates throughout the morning.
Metro Traffic: We won't get you to work on time, but maybe we'll give you a good excuse!
No picture of Ferral anywhere on the site. No mention of any of his best bets or anything else he does that he brought to the show. It looks very real to me.

Actually, his pic and info is there but you have to search for it (click "schedule" and then click on Morning Sports). I have a feeling the guy in charge of the site just overlooked it.

As great as that would be for the DC listeners, wouldn't that be a step back for R&F? I mean wouldn't they at least try to stay in NY on another station rather than come to the smaller DC market? Or, wouldn't they go to Boston or Philly before DC?
I don't care where they broadcast from -- just as long as they air in DC.

See, it would be nice to check WJFK's website to see any mention of this R&f rumor...BUT THEY DON'T HAVE ONE. Truly pathetic...and while DC is a smaller market than NYC, it's still one of the biggest in the country and the world...both shows out of WJFK, D&M and The Sports Junkies, like them or not, are syndicated to around or at least a dozen markets each, so at least R&F could still be getting out there...and while WNEW is falling apart, WJFK is still pretty stable...Stern, D&M, and The Junkies all pull in the top talk ratings here, and O&A weren't doing that great, so R&F don't have to do too much to beat them...plus they already have a rabid core audience to build from, so maybe this whole DC idea isn't as crazy as it seems...

People Ferrall is gone. You don't take him off your website because hes on vacation! And who the fuck takes a vacation a month after the last one. They probally told him that so he wouldnt bad-mouth the station thoughout his entire last show. Ferrall and R&F were the only thing left on WNEW now its just R&F. All other shows will have low rating leading to a format change. Or maybe the change is already being planned and R&F are already dead and just being used to fill time on the air for a few more days.

on a positive note of pure speculation maybe O & A got Ferrall to leave and maybe will get R & F to leave and have their own sort of super station.

This is very sad. Did you hear the kind of sigh/groan that Ron gave today, when a caller said, 'Shake it up!' Both he and Fez seemed pretty bummed today-they put on a good show, but it seemed to be lacking something. I thought WNEW was about to enter a "golden age" of radio. Ferrall, O&A, and Ron and Fez were great reason to keep the station turned to 102.7, but now it looks like Garth Brooks will be the only thing we listeners have to look forward to. This is just not fair. I am furious.

This is a MISERABLE FUCKING SITUATION.
Ferall was OK. I'm not up at 5 anymore, but I would listen to him on the can before I tuned into Stern.
I hope he finds work soon.
But more importantly, If Ron and Fez go to DC, we may not get them here in NYC. Fucking Weak.

This whole thing has got me so shaken up... I'm not a sports person, but I LOVED that show. I'm so sad to see this lineup disolving before my eyes. The worst part of it all, of course, is that I won't be able to hang with my radio buddies every night while I throw dinner together, relax with a few beers, or putz around with the computer. If you're bumming like me, look me up on AIM. I'd like to chat with some you RnF buddies sometime. Seeyuh! <P> <P>

It's also been confirmed in today's article in the Daily News. They cited poor ratings, not any on-air stuff as the reason they canned him. This really blows... how do they give Ferrall 8 months to prove himself?
WNEW is like the NY Mets of radio. Everything looked promising for a brief instant, and now it's basically in the shitter, with one bright spot. And who knows how long that will last...

Well, although I have absolutely no info to back this up, I would speculate that what management is trying to do is quash the extreme talk gimmick completely out the window now that the only guys they've kept it for are gone. After O&A, only Ferrell and R&F were left, and with Ferrell's ratings, that part was easy. So, with R&F only left, they can do one of two things:
1) Keep them on NEW around a changed format and they'llbe the only talk show on (it happens on plenty of music stations, on either mornings or afternoons, they put on a talk show). Man, it'd be great if R&F go to mornings if only to hit for the cycle (late night, evenings, midday, afternoon drive and morning drive).
or
2) Infinity moves them to another station in the Infinity family and they turn NEW to CUNT-ry.
I guess 3 would be to fire them, but with their ratings, that won't happen, and if they planned to, they'd be canned already. I guess Lick-ass isn't a permanent thing, just something to put on til the format changes. Either way, that's the way I see it going out, just because it's the ony logical explanation I could come up with.

On the WNEW web site they don't even show Ferrall on the line up. by the looks of it ron and fez are the only good show left.

Ferral gets a few months at the bottom and that no-talent hack Sid Rosenburg gets a few years at rock bottom. Once again, who controls this business?

Well I don't know if anyone has said or saw this yet but it is confimed. If you read the Daily News article about Ron Pennington and Fez Whatley, at the bottom of the article, an Infinity spokeperson has said Ferrall was fired, "because of bad ratings."

What the hell does Infinity and NEW expect. Anyone going against Stern is going to need then a few months to gain any form of ratings. They should have at least kept him because he was liked by the fans he did have and was also liked what was of the staff. <P>

What's wrong with Sid? He's on WFAN in the mornings and last I checked, cohosted the mid morning show...I always liked him, and thought that the Scott and Sid show was the best sports combination that wnew had in the mornings.
Plus they got up close interviews with Bonnie Bernstein...beat that!

Love Ferrall...not only would his show have worked given enough time, he's a hell of a nice guy. Really, how awful are Imus and Stern? Stern sounds like an aging yenta, and Imus has sucked for YEARS.

Could someone post a list of WNEW's sponsors? I plan to boycott each and every product they support. WNEW is my new enemy of the show. Firing Ferrall was the last straw. Shake it uppppppppppppppp!!

I think I figured out the Ferrall firing. Diddn't Ferrall have to take a drug test recently. I think he spoke about it last month. I was on the boat party with him and I can guarantee he failed that one. He really is off the hook...it's no act, the man is a party animal. I think he may be back in 28 days. (rehab maybe?) How 'bout some Goldenseal next time???
