Sent 7 pm tonight.
To all our New York buddies:
We just wanted to thank you for all the support and friendship that you have
given us over the past several years.
The Ron and Fez Show will no longer be on WNEW. We would have liked to have
done a 'see ya' show to thank you all, but such is the radio business. The
show will still be on the air on WJFK in Washington, DC.
Nobody has enjoyed being on the air in New York as much as Ron and Fez. It
has been an honor to spend our overnights, middays, evenings, afternoons,
middays again and finally back to evenings with you. No matter where they
put us, we always had fun and we always tried our best to make sure you had
fun too.
Who knows what the future may bring, but the way this business works, we may
be back in your radios before you know it.
You can stay in contact with us through RonFez.net or e-mail us at
RonandFez@aol.com.
Thank you so much for all the laughs, cigars and Oreos.
Seeeee ya!
Ron and Fez
Oh yeah, one more thing......your mom's box!!!

You know,
I was at work all day, receiving calls and text messages from concerned board members and fans of the show.
And all the while I was certain that everything would be alright.
:(
After reading this letter, I can't stop the tears.
I might not have been a 'long-time' listener as many of the others, but I sure as hell grew very fond of the boys. I shared laughs with them, and they've got me through a lot.
I am so going to miss them being in New York.
I am so sad right now, like I dunno what else to say.
Hopefully we can still listen to them somewhere online.
I can't stop crying.
Like, all of a sudden it's real!
I hope everyone else is doing okay.
Email or IM me if anything LatinSpiceXoX@aol.com
I LOVE YOU RON AND FEZ!

As my wife and I drove in to work this morning, we started laughing about how nuts Fez would be going about the Bucs winning the Superbowl. We started guessing whether he would have a voice or not. Then we switched over to NEW to hear what NEER had to say during a Howard commercial. Our reaction was the same. OHHNOOOOOOO! What a fuckin crime. I feel like someone broke in to my house and only stole the shit that really liked. I can't believe that big business can be this stupid. Way to alienate a fan base.
I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything, I wasn't there and if I was there I was asleep.

I've been listening to the boys since day one and although I have never actually called the show or posted to the board before (in fact I just registered today so I could write this), I felt I had to post my feelings on this sad day. Ron & Fez were more than just a radio show. They were like a couple of friends. The relationship they had with their audience was like no other show I've ever heard. I was looking forward all day to hear how ecstatic Fez was going to be talking about the Bucs. I wrote my letters but in the end I guess it was in vain. We can only hope that they end up back in NYC some day soon. Until then...Take it easy Clarkie!

Ron and Fez you guys rule and it's true that there was never anybody who had as much fun in NYC then Ron and Fez.

WNEW has reached a new low, anyone who agreed with me thinknig don and mike or lickus were bad have been proven wrong

Yesterday, during the Super Bowl I found myself rooting for the Bucs, even though I'm a Jets fan. I wanted to hear Fezzies jubilation. I woke up to the message board and was shocked to find out my buddies were gone. I never got on air or met the boys but the radio was locked to the show 10-2 and 7-11:30. I never had so much fun day after day, night after night. Ron and Fez are great comedians and always put together a great show. I just want to thank the boys for making my days and nights more enjoyable. I know that one day they will be back in NYC. In conclusion, C'ya!!! <P>

I just hope that for now we'll all be able to get live feeds to the show and that the guys come back to New York real soon. It took so long for that dump to change formats, I was stupid enough to think that the letter writing campaign and flying the banner over the city was actually having the effect we were hoping for. I hope whoever made this decision gets bricked in the head by a bum who also likes to skull rape his victims. Fuck you NEW!

I am so depressed you don't understand. I'm the world's happiest girl, seriously, and I am depressed. I am so angry and shocked that I think I may have a stroke.
I turned on the radio this evening as I always do to listen to Ron and Fez, the only thing that really makes me laugh so hard, soda comes out my nose. And what do I hear? Some crappy R&B crappy crap! So I messed with my dial, thinking I had it on Z100 (100.3) or KTU (103.5) even, but no.. lo and behold, top 40 to the left and the right.
I did not think that WNEW would ever do this. They are insane. COMPLETELY INSANE!
I sure hope that K-Rock picks Ronnie and Fezzie up, even if it's in the AM's (to tell you the truth I'm sick of Howard Stern).
Love you guys and I hope you get back on the air in the NY/NJ area soon!

Geezus. I know I don't post much, but I'm a listener back from the .com days. This email pretty much finalizes it, I suppose. If anybody is interested, go to http://hawkins.pair.com/wnew.html where you can find out a history of the WNEW transmitters. I thought maybe incase Jersey Rich wanted to make some battle plans, the location layout would help...
But seriously, this completely sucks. Big time. Go look at the transmitters, get depressed, and go grab a shotgun. I fully support you.

i bet you guys will all agree with me on this:
there's literally nothing on the radio that's worth listening to. the top 40 S-hits all blow. we all (RnF listeners) tuned into this show because the same music every god damn hour gets so F__KING BORING!! this boredom then needs to be entertained or else your head will explode. RnF relieved this boredom day in and day out. no matter where you were. shopping, in the car, working out or just simply walking anywhere that u wanted to, RnF were there to entertain you and me. and we all liked it or else RnF would have been cancelled a LONG TIME ago. believe me i'm a very long time RnF listener.
now that the ax has fallen we have nothing to listen to. in my case for example the radio has been off all day except at 7:10pm to tune into and hoping that RnF would be on. what i heard was top 40 S-hits noise. damn, i bet all of us are gonna be BORED FOR A VERY LONG F__KING TIME. i already am. how about u?

This is like when the Dodgers left Brooklyn. It's just such a heartbreak. I would give up ever watching tv again, if I could listen to Ron and Fez. It's so sad. Nothing on tv is as funny or creative as Ron and Fez, and, the fact that 102.7 is playing Christina Aguilera and Avril Lavigne horsecrap, it's like rubbing salt in the wound.

I have to admit that there is a tear in my eye and a lump in my throat. Our Buddies are gone. Every suit and tightass Know-it-all at that station should fucking rot in hell. You bunch of scumbags.

Just chiming in with my sadness & anger over the whole thing. A few nice posts in this thread sum it all up better then I ever could.What I wish is this: May whoever ultimately made this decision feel the combined pain of all the saddened fans running through their body until their last breath leaves their lungs. May Ron & Fez, from this day forward, feel the combined joy they gave each and every one of us.One consolation for me as it may be for you too - I am not alone in my sadness and neither are you. Thank you Ron & Fez, from the bottom of my heart.<P> I'll write another letter, and make another call, for whatever good that will do. <P> <P>

You know it's kinda ironic that the Bucs make Superbowl history and Infinity pulls an Art Modell..and sneaks the team out of town under the cover of darkness only to have the tride and true fans wake up to find there is no one to cheer for anymore...as for the new format...what the fuck is it???? Top40-HipHop-Punk...I kept switching it on and off hoping that Ron & Fez would still be there...they played the same 6 songs all day long.....Why not just play static..your ratings will be the same without O&A and Ron&Fez.....
One day this past year at WNEW will be a class in some college communications program on how not to run a radio station.
Ok now I need a drink....Hennessy & Oreo's for everyone!!!!!

Until I actually got the email at 7pm from the guys, I didn't really believe it. I kept thinking that somehow they would have survived. Wishful thinking. <P>
There is lots of sadness in the Barbie Dream house tonight. <P>

This sucks... I was driving on the expressway earlier today & tuned to NEW, only to hear music, my first thought was UH OH. I made it a point to be back in my car & heading to work at 7pm only to hear more shitty music. At first I thought it was a Ron & Fez joke, the same joke they played on us when it was rumored that the station was changing to country. I remember that night well, they did about 45 minutes of continuing country music, I remember think about that night while I listened tonight so I stayed tuned all night and all I heard was the same 5 songs played over & over again, but like a fool I kept listening then realized they were gone. Althou I never went to any live gigs, I was always tuned in from day one and the dot com days, and called a few times.
.... RON & FEZ im going to miss you guys, you made me smile during my darkest days...And God Bless You For That.
And before I go I want to say CONGRATULATIONS on the BUCS WIN.
Until your back in New York...Seeeeeeeeya

You know,
I was at work all day, receiving calls and text messages from concerned board members and fans of the show.
And all the while I was certain that everything would be alright.
After reading this letter, I can't stop the tears.
I might not have been a 'long-time' listener as many of the others, but I sure as hell grew very fond of the boys. I shared laughs with them, and they've got me through a lot.
I am so going to miss them being in New York.
I am so sad right now, like I dunno what else to say.
Hopefully we can still listen to them somewhere online.
I can't stop crying.
Like, all of a sudden it's real!
I hope everyone else is doing okay.
Email or IM me if anything LatinSpiceXoX@aol.com
I LOVE YOU RON AND FEZ!
I think I need some latin loving to get me throught this horrible ordeal.
SAVE RON & FEZ!!!

It helps to know that I'm not alone in my loss. God I'm gonna miss those guys. We didn't lose a radio show, we lost 2 good friends.
I will now be turning away from WNEW never to return.
Let's go fight club on their asses!

Damn it, Ron and Fez helped me out during 9-11, dealing with all the crap that this world has thrown at us. Call me a fag if you want, but when I read the e-mail my buddies had sent me, I actually started to cry, because I lost my two buddies.

I don't know which is worse...when I tuned into NEW this morning and was disgusted to hear that fag Justin Timberlake's new single or the sinking feeling i got when I first read the email the big ass cardholders got. It's hard to believe that 6 months ago WNEW was a killer station with the likes of Ron and Fez, O & A, Scott Ferrall etc., and now it's become a Z-100 wannabe. I blame our misery on that unfunny tool Paul Mecurio and the lame ass Catholic Church. f them both <P>

I have been a loyal RF listener since the .com days. The boys kept me company on the overnights and when I worked at ground zero. Laughs are the best medicine boys..and you guys were the doctors! I will miss you guys like I would miss my right arm. To everyone involved with the show..from the callers and the posters to the interns and to Ron and Fez...I will always remember you all and laugh my ass off! Still got your Picture on my locker Boyz! Always will too! This is one very sad NYC Garbage man!Come back soon Boyz!! <P> <P>

I read this email late last night. So sad indeed. One of the sadest emails I have ever written. It really did make it FINAL. And man did it suck.
Sun morning aroudn 1 AM I turned on the radio to hear some loveline before bed. I heard Ja Rule. Listened to the FAN for a bit...then turned back to WNEW. I heard Christina. I knew right then and there it was over. I couldn't believe it.
And why are they doing this no DJ just straight song after sogn format with the DUMB ASS "Station coming soon." Cant they put R & F on until they get it all set up instead of F-in music?!!? This sucks so bad.
I used to tape R & F all the time for my weekend driving from the city and back, as well as going back and forth to Cornell while I was at college. This is a major blow for me. I have to get cable right away. At least I can hear them on the web. But it soooooo will never be the same. And feeds(which I did at school) are so unpredictable. DAMNIT THIS SUCKS!!!

I am very sad too. I have definately passed into a mourning stage.I have been Ron and Fez fans since the beginning when I would listen to them overnights on long drives back to PA where I was living at the time. I would often lose them at the Jersey line, but they got me through some tough sad times and have continued to be dear radio friends since then. I will miss their quick wit and perspective on things. That kind of humor can only come from two very intellegent men with hearts of gold.
Please come back soon.

This is my first post to the board, although I've been a listener since the .com days. I am very sad to see Ron and Fez off the air in NY, as they gave us all something wonderful to listen to on NY radio besides Pink Floyd's

This is my first post to the board, although I've been a listener since the .com days. I am very sad to see Ron and Fez off the air in NY, as they gave us all something wonderful to listen to on NY radio besides Pink Floyd's "Comfortably Numb" fifty-seven times an hour. The show was brilliant, often times outshining (as we all have come to see) the only show that WNEW and Infinity Broadcasting really cared about...O&A. Through the multiple shift changes that WNEW and Infinity Broadcasting put the boys through, we all stuck by them and kept listening. We showed our loyalty time and time again. And what happens? WNEW, the place where rock once lived and talk was starting to reign supreme, give us all the finger and go(seemingly) Top 40. All I can say now is that Ron and Fez will undoubtedly be missed and I will definitely be sending my share of letters to the disastrously faded minds at Infinity Broadcasting. Good luck, R&F...wherever you are.

When I'm walking, and I see an old lady trip and fall, I laugh. Then I think, what if I was an ant and she fell on me then it wouldn't seem so funny any more.
