David Brudnoy Sidelined By Radiation Treatments

[Mark Watson]

   I read in today's Boston Herald that WBZ (1030 Boston) evening talk host
David Brudnoy will be off the air for a while, as the radiation treatments
he's receiving for his skin cancer have affected his voice, and his throat
is also in considerable pain as a result of the treatments. At this time,
it's unknown how long Brudnoy will be sidelined, but he has more radiation
treatments this week and next, so it probably will be at least another
couple of weeks at the earliest.

   Will WBZ use just one fill-in host for David Brudnoy or will they rotate
among the list of guest hosts that was mentioned in recent newspaper
articles: Jack Williams, Paul Sullivan, Peter Meade, Jon Keller, Joe Scaccia
(sp?).
