Vlad 325 Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I still think that this was a bad decision on WNYW's behalf, I'm pretty sure they've lost many viewers as a result of this. I'm not saying that he shouldn't have been fired, but if what he's saying is true: "That he wasn't given ample warning, prior to his termination..." then FOX 5 has just gotten a new "Shame Shame Shame" story, but this time with a new twist, on how their own management screwed up. Not to mention that the channel is already ailing in the morning ratings already, so this just fuels the fire.

Amra 171 Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 what else can you expect? It's Doctor Leone, the best Rx to kill a station. Look at what they did at CBS 2.

SuitSnob 19 Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 There is absolutely no rational reason to fire Andre Hepkins. He is great at what he does. The Infamous SuitSnob actually met Andre once-he is a total gentleman and a class act as well. I hope the crabs living on Diane's twat are feeling particularly antsy tonight.

TellyGenic 33 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Dari and Rick Folbaum came from Fox News (network) as a "loaner" to the local station - can't she go back there?
