| Post subject: | HISTORY OF THE SCORE FAIL |
I was reading the 7 part History of the Score at http://chicago.cbslocal.com/content-vertical/the-scores-20th-anniversary/, and they forgot to mention WEBIO!!! How do you tell about the Score history without talking about why a lot of former Score people are former Score people? Especially when it was backed by Mike North, a true American success story whose personal Vietnam taught us all a valuable lesson about what happens when you trust a shiftless Mexican. |

webio cleaned house of a lot of dead weight from the Score's perspective. It saved Mitch the duty of firing people in a horrible economy and a rapidly changing radio industry. |

Quote: In those early days, airtime was plentiful as commercials were few and far between. Hosts sometimes aired a 30- second public service announcement to make a mad dash to the bathroom. For the companies that did purchase ads, they could be bought for as little as $60. Aw, don't sell yourselves short. $60 a minute for a freshly-launched daytimer seems like quite a bit in 1992 dollars. Maybe if you charged less, you'd have had longer bathroom breaks! |

Might be a timing thing, but I thought George and Fred were already launched. Jesse? Who knows? |

I think Fred got fired from the Score right around when Mac got fired from 1000. George left on his own, which is baffling. |

Would Mitch have been fired years ago if Rick Telander didn't have his moment of Zen and leave his contract? |

No LoHo at night, more Hamp elucidating. Murph (cause it ain't too broke to need fixin'). Dan & Terry, more teflon and more impervious than ever. A new late night voice for CSFMB to love/loathe. Mike North billboards and Jen Patterson promoting bars, restaurants, car dealerships, coffee shops, hookah bars, and DUI attorneys. |
