So I'm reading one of the radio trade mags, and he's done it again. This guy Seacrest must have sold his soul to Satan. There's no other reason this Clay Aiken look-a-like takes over for such radio icons as Messrs. Casem, Clark, and Dees in one lifetime. Not only does he have a morning show in market #2, but also does a syndicated Top 40 countdown, New Years Eve, and he hosts the (yechhh) Idol. Today Clear Channel (his radio employer and syndicator of the countdown show) said "Clay...I mean Ryan, baby...you're not busy nor rich enough". Now the rest of the country will be subjected to more Seacrest. Really. Clear Channel, through its syndication arm called Premiere, will be condensing his LA morning show into a 3 hour midday or PM drive show for the rest of the country to launch this spring.
Here's where the Satan thing comes in again. Not only will he do all those things, not only will he own a part of the commercial time in his radio show ($$$), but will sell (for $eriou$ dinero)part of the inventory on his countdown show which is on about 4 grillion stations.
Alright, maybe there is a touch of the green-eyed monster here...but how much can one human being of questionable talent accomplish in one friggin' lifetime? If he keeps this up, look for him to replace Rush Limbaugh and run for President in his spare time. With this guys luck, he might even win.
