Both JC Corcoran and Jonathan Brandmeier were long-time Emmis employees and both were recently fired, presumably to save money and because of alleged ratings failure in the new PPM system. Corcoran spent many of his years in St. Louis at Emmis properties, and Brandmeier did the same in Chicago.
JC has handled the situation quietly and with dignity and aplomb at his website; Brandmeier took another route. While Brandmeier's video is harsh and obscenely funny, you need to know that it is not safe for work.
