From <a href="http://www.dcrtv.com/" target="_self">dcrtv</a>Sources: Rosenberg Not Long For 106.7 - 5/18 - Several reliable sources at WJFK-FM tell DCRTV that Peter Rosenberg's days are numbered as the late morning show host on the CBS-owned talker. He could be out "very soon." Apparently, Rosenberg on Wednesday ruffled some feathers when he, on the air, criticized a fellow station personality's decision not to attend the farewell party for WJFK-FM Operations Manager Cameron Gray, who is jumping to Redskins owner Daniel Snyder's Red Zebra Broadcasting. No word on who might replace Rosenberg.....

Rosenberg is a punk and I hope they kick him off soon.  I only listen to Sporting News Radio on the way home from work to catch the scores.   WJFK is dead.   I was a listener of that station since day 1, but once Ron and Fez left it has sunk.

What do you like about Penn's show?  I have tried to listen to him two or three times and just couldn't get into it.

I enjoy his sense of humor, irony & word play.  I like the Vegas (,baby) stories. I love magic, so I think a magician on the radio is cool, and his behind the scenes stories about his profession are fascinating. He is a true intellectual, not a self proclaimed 1 as in the case of some venal ass like William F. Buckley (going back a bit). There aren’t many Renaissance men left in the world & I have always admired people who accomplish MANY THINGS in life. He’s kinda a geeky version of Ron Bennington, another Renaissance man for whom I have the greatest esteem!

Well, that sucks.  I hope maybe it's just him being bumped back to his evening slot, or he goes back to just having the weekend show.  The evening slot REALLY needs to switch, whether it's Rosenberg taking over or R&F being broadcast on delay, or whatever.  Jay Severn should not be allowed near a microphone.

Radio shows where it's just one host talking to themselves always sound insane.

But sadly when you are trying to improve a radio station- "some people" don't cut it. I hate em. But I DO think he shouldve stayed on late night weekends longer. I think he was thrown into a no win situation. I actually liked his weekend show.  The guy has no bizness on during daylight hours.. leave it to the pros. anyway - I still laugh in his face

I am in Jersey so I have no idea about WJFK..... but I know that is Washington.  I am listening to O & A now and if that was true I am assuming they would have said something.  Unless they said it in the 6-7 hour which I missed but will hear on the replay.... is this definite that they are going on in Washington?

This has nothing to do with anything, but I'm listening to Rosenberg today cuz of the above comments.  Anyway, this retard just said Babe Ruth is one of the most underrated white person ever.

From dcrtv.com O&A To 106.7 Middays, Rosenberg Out - 5/31 - <img border="0" align="right" src="http://dcrtv.com/oanda3.jpg" />DCRTV
hears that Opie and Anthony (right) will air on WJFK-FM in late
mornings, in replacement of Peter Rosenberg's 10 AM to noon show. The
announcement could come today. No word if O&A, who air live in
morning drive on some CBS Radio stations and on DC's XM Satellite
Radio, will air post noon, too, in the slot now occupied by Bill
O'Reilly. According to Dan Caterinicchia in the <a target="_new" href="http://www.washingtontimes.com/business/20060530-095100-6077r_page2.htm">DC Times</a>,
Michael Hughes, general manager of WJFK-FM, said the CBS talk station
had "work to do in middays" after it dropped from 13th to 18th overall,
and "The Don And Mike Show" in afternoon drive dropped from 5th to
15th. Caterinicchia adds that Rosenberg appears the most likely to
leave or be reassigned, and he did not return calls for comment
yesterday. O&A aired in afternoon drive on WJFK-FM until 2002, when
they were yanked after doing a show which featured a Virginia couple
having sex in an NYC church.....

In fairness, DCRTV said that Ron and Fez were going to XM... In APRIL.  So if form holds, Rosenberg will have a shift for another 3 months.
