We got Mike & wife Bebe, followed closely by Steve Dahl & son - but wait, there's more! This was in the Sun-times radio news today:

• Full disclosure: For the latest example of journalistic nepotism (or just plain laziness), look no further than a WBBM-Channel 2 feature about couples who are choosing to get married on July 7, 2007 -- 07-07-07 -- billed as "the luckiest day of the century."

To illustrate her story, reporter Sylvia Gomez interviewed one bride-to-be -- Hillary Damsky -- without identifying her as a sales account executive at Top 40 WBBM-FM (96.3). Both Channel 2 and B96 are owned by CBS.

Gomez later said she didn't think Damsky's employment was "relevant" to the story. She also said she was unaware that Damsky's father, Michael Damsky, is vice president and general manager of adult rock WXRT-FM (93.1).

Yep, that's also owned by CBS. •

This was in the Robert Feder column - anybody else hiring family in radio?

Has anyone listened to CKG weekend lineup. Matt may not be good but he is certainly no worse than Bob Sirott and his wife with their self indulgent musings or Susanna who is the general topics version of Jen Jen. CKG basically gives away the weekends so I have a tough time getting angry at the nepotism.

When Kev had Lumpy, I used to listen from Stern at 6 till Dull at 2. I used to listen more in one day then I have since Stern left. I think Matt sucks but I'm also jealous. I've heard that Bob and Marianne show is simply a big plug for a Lexus dealership and they plug them as a way to pay off a freebie Lexus they got. Susanna is gone I think, she was on with TJ (from Rovers show and sports on BBM-AM) TJ talked shit about Dull and Dull wanted him canned, now they have David Hockberg, who's even worse, but yeah Susanna was brutal. But another case of Dahl dishing it, he used to rip Rover and Susanna, but you say something about tubby and your gone, happened to Mo Driver as well.
