Le Batard Irate Over Local Management

0

Last week ESPN Rqadio’s Dan Le Batard went off on management in his local Miami hour when someone — who was not named on the air — told Le Batard to stop talking about this story that was in the Miami Herald. Le Batard made it clear that was not going to happen.

Le Batard says the local management threatened to take him off the air if he continued talking about the story. Le Batard begged the station to fire him, saying nobody was going to control what he said on the air.

Le Batard said the only time he was as mad as he was Friday was when he yelled at “the former President at ESPN” over a similar issue. Sports Talk AM 790 The Ticket, the station Le Batard is on in Miami, is owned by Entercom.

Management at the station tell Radio Ink Le Batard remains on during the local Miami hour. They had no other comment.
