I've never heard her since I can't pick up The River in Providence, but that might make her a recognizable name to WBOS' audience.......however.....is there some reason why BOS doesn't take advantage of its' main asset which is George Knight? I would assume he has the most name-recognition but even if he didn't, he's clearly the biggest on-air asset. There may be other reasons why he's doing nights but he's lasted through all the changes, has been bounced around all over the station, & IMHO needs to be in a more prominent slot. I'm sure there are those who'll say it won't matter, but the fact is that he belongs on days somewhere unless you can tell me the night show on WBOS is the most important one. Hopefully if they ever go live mornings again, George will be part of the show.
 
Hooray for Joanne..Good news for her. Will always have
a softspot for her as she was the first PD to take a
shot with me! Best of luck JoAnne!!!<P ID="signature">______________
