[Bob Nelson]

Adam Reilly of the Boston Phoenix writes about Howie Carr bolting from WRKO.

He says that Howie had a bunch of grievances against WRKO, one of them being
the hiring of Finneran. He suggests that the hiring of the former Speaker
made things worse for Howie by driving listeners away from the station.

And now WRKO has to face the prospect of not only having a weaker
pm drive personality, but Carr will be a formidable foe in morning drive.
Mike Harrison of Talkers is quoted as saying that younger listeners
and women may discover Carr once he moves to the FM dial.
