Tidbits
July 7, 2018Wendy Bell appeared on KDKA-AM (1020) on Thursday and Friday as a co-host to Marty Griffin from 9:00 a.m. – Noon. The Court of Public Opinion features a jury from both sides of the aisle depending on whether you read Facebook or Voy Forum. Either you’re dreading the thought of Wendy on KDKA or you’re chomping at the bit. No formal announcement has been made. Bell, of course, was fired from WTAE-TV (4) in 2016 for comments made on her station Facebook page regarding a Wilkinsburg shooting.
Meanwhile, PBRTV has heard that Griffin has stepped back from KDKA-TV (2) to focus on radio and other projects.
John Steigerwald returns to radio this coming Monday, July 9 via WPGP-AM (1250). On his Facebook page, Steigerwald says, “We’ll be talking about sports, culture, politics, local issue and of course movies.” The only thing his post doesn’t mention is the time!
Prediction: Pintek announces his retirement, Griffin takes over 12-3, Bell takes over 9-12.
