Bill Radke is out as the co-host of NPR's Weekend America, replaced by his protégé John Moe.
Ouch! That smarts!
On his blog, John Moe wrote that Bill Radke recommended him not only to Weekend America, where he was first a fill-in for Bill and then a regular co-host, but also earlier to Seattle's KUOW station where Bill hosted the popular syndicated show Rewind.
For me it was great to have John Moe fill the void Bill Radke left in Seattle when he went to Los Angeles. I do remember being struck at first by how much John sounded like Bill--maybe too much for NPR to justify paying them both.
