Time Warner: We Have A Deal with Disney/ESPN and ABC (Sep 3, 2010)

Attention football fans, princess lovers, and Wife-Swap watchers . It warms the core of my leathery corporate heart to bring you the following announcement:

We're pleased to announce that we have reached a long-term agreement with ESPN/ABC and Disney to provide for continued carriage of a broad array of Disney/ABC and ESPN networks and services in standard and high-definition, including:

ABC Family, Disney Channel, Disney XD, Disney Channel on Demand (subscription video on demand), ESPN, ESPN2, ESPN Classic, ESPN Deportes, ESPNEWS, ESPNU, ESPN Pay-Per-View, and Toon Disney.

The agreement also allows for the launch of the following networks and services:

• Disney Junior, a new 24-hour basic channel for preschool-age children, parents and caregivers launching in 2012.
• ESPN3.com - ESPN's live sports broadband network will be available to all Time Warner Cable subscribers who get ESPN.
• A new service allowing customers to view ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPNU through broadband and mobile Internet devices
• ESPN Goal Line - a college football super-highlight channel will be available only to Time Warner Cable's Sports Pass customers starting as early as September 4, 2010;
• ESPN Buzzer Beater: a college basketball service similar to ESPN Goal Line, will be available to Time Warner Cable's Sports Pass customers for college basketball season;
• Expanded Video-on-demand services: including ABC On Demand, Disney-branded On Demand offerings for kids, local sports content in select markets, plus the subscription video-on-demand service "Disney Family Movies"
• Start Over and Look Back features on a variety of Disney Media Networks content.
• ESPN Deportes: available to a larger Time Warner Cable footprint
• ESPN 3D.

These negotiations are fun for nobody. They mean a lot of long hours, white-collar fire drills and last-minute tension timed to stain the closest holiday. I know that to everyone following this at home, it reads like two enormous corporate giants slugging it out. Before I worked here, I just sort of pictured a gigantic robot mouse slugging this out with a colossal hovering set-top box like Godzilla vs. Mothra or something.

Here's the reality: most of both teams spent the night in the office last night. They didn't sleep. Not, like, slept poorly, or got into a bed and tossed and turned, but were literally in the office overnight working. One of our people has a four year-old son who went off to his first day of school today while his dad was in the office sweating this thing out. Some negotiators on both sides have kids who went off to college while their parents were working on this.

The end result is this: both sides put in a tremendous amount of work at no small sacrifice to their personal lives to bring you a lot of great content without interruption.

Thanks again for your patience, and have a great Labor Day weekend.

Gary Lycan: Pat O'Brien is one of the more recognizable faces and voices in broadcasting. When you watch or see him, you know he's done his homework and you trust his reporting or commentary. If we still had broadcast journalists wearing trench coats and looking like foreign correspondents in the war zone, you'd see O'Brien on the front lines. He's lived life - more on that in a moment - and it underscores his authenticity in his newest role - a "Loose Cannon" alongside Steve Hartman and Vic "The Brick" Jacobs noon-3 p.m. weekdays on Fox Sports Radio and KLAC 570 AM.

PR: Rome Moving to XTRA 1360 Oct 4 (Sep 2, 2010)

San Diego, California September 1, 2010 - Debbie Wagner, Clear Channel Radio San Diego President and Market Manager, today announced the addition of The Jim Rome Show to the on-air lineup of XTRA Sports 1360 AM (KLSD) beginning on Monday, October 4, 2010.

Perhaps the most respected voice in the world of sports broadcasting, Jim Rome is the leading opinion-maker of his generation. As host of the nation's premiere sports radio talk show, Rome is known for his aggressive, informed, rapid-fire dialogue. Jim has established himself as the top choice of athletes and fans who want to know what is going on beyond the scoreboard. The Jim Rome Show will air on XTRA Sports 1360 AM weekdays from 9:00 am to 12:00 Noon, following the popular Dan Patrick Show, which airs from 6:00 am to 9:00 am. The XTRA Sports lineup for the remainder of the day will include: Chris Ello from 12:00 Noon to 3:00 pm; The Chargers Power Hour from 3:00 pm to 4:00 pm; and The Drive with Josh Rosenberg from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. "I am extremely excited to welcome Jim and his `Clones' to XTRA Sports 1360. I remember when he launched The Jungle late night on XTRA Sports and was hooked. I can't wait to have Dan Patrick and Jim Rome back-to-back every morning on XTRA," said XTRA Program Director, Brian Wilson.

Rome's nationally syndicated radio program, The Jim Rome Show, a.k.a. The Jungle, airs on more than 200 radio stations each weekday and boasts more than two million listeners. Known as `Clones,' this legion of fans live and breathe for Jim Rome's "take" on the day's major sports issues. His departure from conventional sports commentary has cultivated Rome's unique dialogue with his listeners and garnered a large and loyal following.

In addition to his daily radio show, Rome is host to ESPN's Jim Rome Is Burning, a provocative sports talk show airing at daily 4:30 pm EST. The program originates from Los Angeles and features opinion, Rome's "rants," debate and guest appearances by some of the biggest name in sports.

Rome's broadcast career has included The Last Word with Jim Rome, a nightly show that ran for five years on Fox Sports Net, and a two-year stint hosting ESPN2's Talk2. Rome began his radio career at KTMS, Santa Barbara as the "$5 dollar-an-hour" traffic reporter and covered UC Santa Barbara sports. He left KTMS for San Diego's all-sports station, XTRA Sports 690. It was during a temporary stint on a late-night show for the station that Rome's infamous "smack" (Jungle Glossary term meaning sports talk in a gloating, uninhibited or unbridled manner) was born. Jim's style got listeners attention and lead to the creation of his show The Jungle, which went into syndication in 1996 with Premiere Radio Networks, who continues to expand its reach through affiliates nationwide.

Rome graduated from the University of California, Santa Barbara in 1987, with a degree in Communications. He currently resides in Los Angeles with his wife, Janet and their two children.

PR: New PD for KHTS (Sep 2, 2010)

San Diego, California September 1, 2010 - San Diego, California September 1, 2010 - Jimmy Steele, Clear Channel Radio San Diego Operations Manager, today announced the appointment of Joe Haze as Program Director for KHTS-FM "Channel 933".

In announcing Joe Haze's appointment, Jimmy Steele said, "I am pleased to announce the promotion of our own "Haze" to Program Director of Channel 933. His passion for the station, level of experience and knowledge of the San Diego market, along with the respect of his peers make him the right choice to lead our programming efforts and continue to grow the Channel 933 brand. We are truly excited about the leadership that Haze will bring to our dynamic Channel 933 team!"

Haze added, "This promotion is truly a dream come true for me. I have so much respect for the staff of Channel 933 and I look forward to working with this talented team to take the station to the next level of success. I am grateful for the continued guidance and leadership of my mentor and Operations Manager, Jimmy Steele and for the confidence placed in me by our President and Market Manager, Debbie Wagner."

Joe Haze Radio Biography:

Haze started his radio journey in 1989 as an intern for KZZP-FM Phoenix. In early 1990 he moved to Jacksonville Florida to play the "Big Ape" mascot for the legendary Radio station WAPE-FM. After realizing he was under qualified for that position, he got his first on-air break on WAPE later that same year. In 1992 he took his talents across town to WJBT-FM to become the music director and the afternoon drive host. In 1997 Haze had the chance to move back to Phoenix to further his career but he chose to remain with the company and took a job at a start up radio station in San Diego. That station was and is KHTS-FM. He moved here to become the music director and first "official" night time air talent for Channel 933. Haze has remained the music director to this day and has leant his knowledge of music and on-air talent to Clear Channel's sister station KMYI-FM as well.

Tom Taylor: Fighting a performance royalty, Clear Channel spent $1.4 million last quarter to lobby Uncle Sam. Clear Channel has many lobbying interests, including the regulation of its lucrative new digital billboards. But the big bump in quarterly lobbying expenses reported by the AP – nearly double last year’s $710,000 – is almost certainly due to the battle with the record industry. That echoes what Bonneville’s Bruce Reese said on last month’s Conclave panel (the quote heard round the world) – that it’s possible for the radio industry to fend off a performance royalty, but at enormous cost in time and political capital. NAB CEO Gordon Smith sees it the same way and so do several current and past NAB Board chairs. The membership? That’s another story, with wide divergence in views. Back to Clear Channel – it reported spending $1,370,000 to lobby the federal government between April and June.

Who Da Guy Hawaii: 93 KHJ: Inside Boss Radio - Excerpt # 19: Gary Mack: Every week at the jock meetings Ron Jacobs was like George Allen exhorting the Rams in the locker room. There was some picking of nits but always a lot of positives. Jacobs did a lot of fine-tuning in these sessions. More adrenaline pumping than any radio meeting I’ve been to since. Then Jacobs would unveil the latest promotion. There was a lot of ooh-ing and aah-ing when he’d roll out the latest promos he had written and Robert W. Morgan had recorded. What amazes me, listening to them now, is the quality of those spots. They’re still better today than anything you hear done on the new digital production consoles. And all of it done on quarter-inch mono tape - I’ll bet we went through a ton of splicing tape and razor blades. And what is so unbelievable is that KHJ’s studio and production facilities were really rudimentary. But the meetings - they were good!

George Varga SDUT: KCBQ-AM, the once-monumental San Diego radio station that often dominated Top 40 radio here between 1958 and 1978, was honored with a monument of its own Saturday in Santee - Santee Mayor Randy Voepel was on hand to help unveil the monument at this free public event. He was joined by such former KCBQ star DJs as "Shotgun" Tom Kelly, who will serve as master of ceremonies; Jack Woods (better known as "Charlie" of the radio team Charlie & Harrigan; and Jack Vincent, 92, the station's former engineer and overnight DJ.

KCBQ Remembered (August 30, 2010)

August 28 was the day of the KCBQ monument dedication. The current location of Kohls on Mission Gorge Road is where you can see the monument, which is on the south end of the old lot where the old KCBQ building and its six transmitters once beamed top 40 music from 1958-78.

Friday, the day before, "Shotgun" Tom Kelly, who worked at KCBQ in the 70s before joining B100, was on the DSC on B100's old frequency 100.7 (now Jack-FM), talking with the DSC in the morning about the event that would took place the day after. Kelly was also on the Mark Larson show on his old home that still has the legendary call letters, KCBQ 1170.

Kelly began the ceremony. Among the other former KCBQ members who took to podium were Neil Ross, who many remember playing Indian and other voices along with Gary Allyn on "The Adventures of the O.B. Ranger" on radio in the early 70s. In fact, you can read more about it at this link:
