Nothing here is presented as more than unsubstantiated rumor:
ESPN101 full-time air talent have been asked to take serious paycuts.
WIL-FM92's Cornbread & Pat are a few months out of contract and may be without a deal soon, regardless of their CMA winnie thing (industry awards are always better for the next gig than the current one).
Why JK would allow the market franchise of Cornbread & Pat to possibly slip away is incomprehensible. Of course, it remains to be seen where they might go, what with the state of the economy. A few bucks less and a continuing gig is better than no gig at all. Which also speaks to the WXOS situation.
