You Get What You Pay For...
Sports Radio 950 The Fan has outsourced its local morning 20/20 sports to a lady in California.
Karen Kay, who works for Fox Sports Radio, is a part of the syndicated overnight show "The Third Shift."
The Fan is a Fox Sports Radio affilliate. FSR, at The Fan's request, has Kay record several updates at the end of her shift for use during The Fan's morning show.
She is not paid extra for this duty. She is not local to Denver. And both are obvious.
She routinely mispronounces names. (She does not know how to pronounce Avalanche forward Wojtek Wolski's name.)
She gets facts wrong. (Today she announced that the Denver University Pioneers were playing North Dakota College. The Pioneers are actually playing the University of North Dakota. She said that Brendan Shanahan was the captain of the NHL's Western Conference All-Star team. He plays for the New York Rangers and was captain of the Eastern Conference team.)
Even if she had the voice of a Siren, luring sailors to a rocky death, it would not overcome her inability to get things correct.
Her errors ruin whatever credibility The Fan has. She makes everyone at the station look stupid.
She does not cost anything - except the station's crediblity. How much is that worth?
