Report: Talent Purge At K-Rock Syracuse

It's been a busy radio week in Syracuse.  Across town, Galaxy’s WKRL 100.9 FM KROCK reportedly dismissed three on-air personalities Wednesday, according to a posting at cnyradio.com.

Trusted sources tell CNYRadio.com that morning host Dex Mitchell, midday host / program director Nixon, and night host Candace Curby are no longer employed by Galaxy.  The purge comes less than 48 hours after the morning co-hosts at Cumulus-owned competitor 95X (WAQX)  suddenly walked off the job.

That leaves afternoon drive host Rainman with the distinction of being the sole full-time KROCK personality to survive the housecleaning. 

As of this morning, the KROCK website still listed Dex, Nixon and Candace among the on-air staff.


Tom’s Take:  Is this for real or is K-Rock looking for some PR?  Stay tuned…time will tell.
