Tribune CEO Randy Michaels Boosts Morale at WGN-AM

Randy Michaels loves the WGN staff THIS much!

Last week I told you how former-Clear Channel Charm School president and current Tribune CEO Radio Randy Michaels identified 119 words and phrases that are no good for his company’s flagship station WGN-AM. Well, this week Radio Randy’s follow-up was to double-down and confront the station’s staff about how the list got leaked outside the station.

Once again Chicago media blogger Robert Feder has his ear to the ground:

On the subject of leaks, Michaels asked individual staffers: “What do you think should happen to people who do that?” He directed much of his ire at Charlie Meyerson, the WGN news director who circulated the memo, blaming Meyerson for mishandling his directive.

You can take the boy out of Clear Channel…
