A judicial memo was issued today in the Howie Carr v. Entercom case.
The final judgement has not yet come, but the judge said that while
the non-compete clause was not enforceable under state law, the
"right to match" clause was. Entercom feels that they did match
the offer he'd received from Greater Media and that they have the
rights to him until Sept. of 2012. Further, according to the Herald,
the judge wrote that Howie had no right to go to Greater Media
and accept an offer from them as his contract had not been
officially terminated by Entercom.

All a bit confusing; will Howie show up tomorrow on WTKK or will he
be forced to stay at WRKO? All still up in the air. Nobody has
given comments yet (lawyers, companies).
