I was worried that this would happen. Bill was great. He was the only OCM iirc that was there since TWC made it's debut. I will certainly miss him.  :cry3:

This was posted a week ago, but do you have proof that he was let go?

Yes. Martin and I were both able to independently confirm that Keneely has been let go.

Confirmed there are no other cuts as of now. Same situation as what happened with Lyons. They didn't "fire" him but didn't reup his contract :(

Could he have continued on-air without a contract with some type of pay? BTW, what ranges in pay do the various OCM receive? I assume it is quite wide. How about the average or medium pay?

Well, why didn't they simply renew his contract? That's what they should have done.

I was told that he knows where every place is in the country. So, Martin, you're right, he is "like a walking atlas."

This is ashamed.  :cry: :cry3: :(
