As reported by the TALKERS website: Ronn Owens Disputes Reports of His Demise at KGO. Addressing yesterday morning�s lead story on the TALKERS magazine morning headlines, attributed to San Francisco media blogger Rich Lieberman, KGO talk show host Ronn Owens tells TALKERS there is no truth to the report that his contract will be bought out before it ends on December 31 and that the station will replace him with a newsy program. Owens also tells TALKERS he has no knowledge of Cumulus Media�s plans beyond his contract but says, �Cumulus has been totally nice to me. � Owens says Lieberman �has been attacking me for over a year for the changes that have taken place at KGO,� referring to the dismissal of othe r talk show hosts and staffers that took place after Cumulus assumed control of the station. Owens says Lieberman�s blog story is �totally made up.� He says, in fact, his agent is not Don Buchwald but is David Katz. He also says he does not make a seven-figure salary and never said that his ego is too big to be paid $300,000, as Lieberman reported. Regarding his future at KGO, Owens tells TALKERS, �San Francisco is the crown jewel of places to live and whatever happens after December 31 happens.� http://www.talkers.com/?s=ronn+owens&x=5&y=6

Nothing earthshaking (no pun) to add from L.A., but in my opinion, Ronn and some guy named Bernard were what made KGO interesting.
