Mark Davis Confirms He's Gone From WBAP

5-8-2012

Davis wrote on his blog that after 18 years at WBAP in Dallas, Cumulus has let him go. "This comes as absolutely no surprise to me.  I said from the beginning that the company has every right to pursue its business model.  If my 18 years of service, the years of ratings and revenue domination, the impenetrable bond I?ve built with countless listeners, the value of me as a presence in the building--  if these things are simply not important to them, no amount of phone calls, petitions or listener protests was going to change anything."

Davis goes on to say, "The more I learned about this company, the more I saw that the things that make a radio talk show a magnificent, magical thing to me, the things that made March 28, 1994 to March 31, 2012 the most special days of my professional life--  constitute a language they do not speak.  I say this without rancor or judgment. Everyone in this story is doing what they are free to do. I will soon be freed from some remaining contractual restraints on specifically pursuing my next destination.  I will share any developments as soon as they occur."
