SPORTS BROADCASTER DAVIS STUNNED BY WBAL LAYOFF

Baltimore Sun
(January 30, 2009) We've seen a flurry of activity in local sportstalk radio in recent weeks.
First, Rob Long left WNST (1570 AM) for Fox Sports 1370, where he has been doing a 9 a.m.-noon show for a couple of weeks. That meant a regular return to the airwaves for WNST's owner, Nestor Aparicio, in the afternoons. Then, 105.7 The Fan re-upped Anita Marks for another year. And, on Monday, WBAL (1090 AM) laid off talk host Steve Davis. WBAL station manager and vice president Jeff Beauchamp said: "We've done some realigning because of the economy. ... This was an economic move" unrelated to Davis' performance. Davis will be paid through the end of his contract, though neither management nor he would say how many months that is. "For five years, it's been nothing but praise, nothing but compliments," said Davis, a former Channel45 sports anchor. "This was totally out of left field. I'm stunned, but I'll be fine." |
