Bernie Miklasz is set to leave WXOS 101.1 FM to expand his duties at his primary employer, the Post-Dispatch and its STLtoday.com website.
According to Dan Caesar at stltoday.com, the move, announced
Wednesday, is to take effect after Miklasz’s radio contract expires at the end
of April.
Miklasz has been a Post-Dispatch sports columnist since 1989
and said a long thought process led to his decision to stop hosting a sports
radio show — something he has been doing in St. Louis since he returned to the
Post-Dispatch and succeeded Kevin Horrigan in giving his opinions on sports.
Miklasz has mixed his writing work with stints at KMOX 1120 AM, KFNS 590 AM,
what currently is KXFN 1380 AM.
His impending departure from hosting a midday sports-talk
show comes at a time of unprecedented turmoil locally in the format. It
recently was announced that KFNS, the longest-standing station in jock-jabber,
will switch to ‘’guy-talk’’ this spring and its sister outlet, KXFN, will drop
sports for programming that targets women.
