Nicely, that was quick.
After lower than half a yr, the Wealthy Shertenlieb Present on 100.7 WZLX has already been canceled.
Shertenlieb made the announcement on Monday afternoon as iHeartMedia makes cuts throughout the board.
“After five months, The Rich Shertenlieb Show will no longer air on WZLX,” Shertenlieb posted. “To say that I’m disappointed is an understatement.”
Shertenlieb, who was a profitable host on 98.5 The Sports Hub for a few years earlier than splitting up with Fred Toucher, launched the sports activities present on the traditional rock station in Might — together with co-hosts Michael Hurley, Ted Johnson and others.
The scores for Shertenlieb’s new present at WZLX ended up being brutal.
“When we launched the show at the end of May, the plan was simple,” Shertenlieb wrote. “We would take the months of Summer to build chemistry with the new cast and by Fall and football season, we would be close to sounding what our vision of the show would be.
“However, just over two months into the show, management decided to alter the format,” he added. “They wanted music, I did not. However despite my disagreement about the decision, I agreed to move forward and music was added… Thank you to iHeart for the opportunity. Just because we didn’t have the same vision doesn’t mean I don’t thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me a chance to assemble the team I’ve always wanted to work with.”
The earlier morning present at WZLX included hosts Pete McKenzie and Heather Ford. The morning present change got here a number of months after morning present co-host Kevin Karlson died unexpectedly.
