I apologize in advance if this multi-post offends anyone...

This message is a request for help for a friend of mine.  Up until
Monday, Joe Kleon was the overnight air personality at WNCX radio in
Cleveland.  He was doing a great job on the air and off.  His ratings
were strong.  His following was loyal.

On Monday (7/17), the management at WNCX rewarded Joe's three years of
service by firing him.  They just coldly tossed him aside.

Why?  Because he wouldn't accept a new contract they were trying to
shove down his throat -- one that would have locked him into five years
of crappy pay and little if any reward for how he had helped improve
the station's overnight ratings or for the other ways he contributed to
the station.

This is where you can help.

If you are a listener to WNCX, if you were a listener to Joe's show, if
you care about what happened to him, please contact WNCX and tell them
you're unhappy about his firing.  The e-mail address is wncx@wncx.com --
 you can call during business hours Monday-Friday at (216) 861-0100, or
you can send snail mail to:

WNCX
1041 Huron Road
Cleveland OH  44115

Or, you can use WNCX's e-mail form at
http://www.wncx.com/contact_us.html

If you wish to get the story straight from Joe himself, check out his
web page at http://members.aol.com/joekleon/joekleon.html

Please consider taking at least a couple of minutes to contact WNCX to
support Joe.  I'd appreciate it -- and so would Joe.  Thanks for your
time. :)
