Just minutes ago on the KSEXradio show, Temptation, the station’s President, Joe Belinkie, made the announcement that one of the founders, executive producers and current show hosts, Wankus, had been terminated. Belinkie stated his duties were to be taken over by Temptation host, Lorraniac.
KSEX announced earlier this week that they would be moving into a new facility in Chatsworth complete with a lobby, green room, jock lounge and three full studios as of June 1st.
Moments later, I spoke with the KSEX staff on duty, all of whom were shocked and confused, especially Lorraniac herself. Belinkie gave no specific reason for the termination, nor did anyone behind the scenes seem to have any indication as to what prompted the decision.
But Wankus, as we all know, is a fighter and within moments he was making the most of the power he still has by posting announcements of his own to the KSEXradio home page. Wankus mocks Belinkie in every way possible, calling him everything from unethical to overweight, and reminds everyone that he is still a part owner in the company (20%, he claims) with equal control over all business decisions until his contract expires in February 2008.
His announcement has since been removed.
This is going to be a very interesting ride.
