What a shame.  It’s all over the news that Brother Wease’s long-time run on WCMF is at a close.  This is but a scant few months after Dave Kane was also canned, so I guess the writing was on the wall from the beginning.  So much for local flavour, it’s been outsourced to India by Corporate America.
