I don't want to read it, but can someone summarize why the "Kane" thread is SO long?

He was on 107.3 for over 20 years, moved around for a while and lost various gigs for various reasons.

Go on DCRTV.com, there is a lot of radio/TV gossip there.

Never heard of Kane or Simpson. I have heard of Jack Diamond, he had a very stupid show on 107.3 (I think).

When the Kane blowup was happening, it was trending on Twitter in DC.

#donniesback was trending off and on yesterday in DC as well on Twitter.

As for the locals who don't know Donnie Simpson: most say "I'm white." Which is pretty much code for people who think music by black people is for black people. I'm white and in my 30s and totally remember him.

exactly this...

Kane, I get because he has been around less than 10 years.. but how do you not know who Donnie Simpson is?!?! He is a local and national legend.

NP. Never heard of him either. Only listen to NPR, XM, or podcasts. Given that, how would I know him?

She is a co-host with Kane, as is "Intern John" which is a character name, and Rose, who is in Tampa.

Because the half dozen out of town power posters can't manage to learn how to start their own blog.
