RW radio hack (Beck fill -in ) loses two jobs in 8 days... while on his honeymoon

Doc Thompson, let go at WLW Cincinnati, is also out at WRVA Richmond

As the Cincinnati Enquirer’s John Kiesewetter observes, talk personality Doc Thompson "lost both his radio jobs in eight days.” First came the phone call while Thompson was on his honeymoon, saying he was off his 9am-noon shift on "Big One" WLW, Cincinnati (700). Now here is Thompson's Friday evening (Feb. 3) posting on Facebook: “I am no longer hosting my Richmond show. In the world of radio broadcasting…sometimes these things happen.” Thompson had been doing 3-6pm for Richmond talker WRVA (1140) when he got the opportunity at WLW, so he moved, but continued doing his WRVA show out of the Queen City. His girlfriend followed him, and she recently landed a job at a Dayton TV station. They recently bought a house together.
