![]() Gee was run out of OSU twice and now metaphorically wears a coonskin cap with his trademark bow tie as president of West Virginia University, from where he has been raiding OSU for its leading medical researchers. ![]() Kasich's pathetic campaign allowed Donald Trump to become president. Johnny Nobody, aka former two-time Ohio governor John Kasich, and Gordie Gee Whiz, aka former two-time OSU president Gordon Gee, have teamed up. Two onetime super heroes of Ohio have resurfaced with a dubious plan to direct opioid money from settlements with drug companies and distributors to hospitals rather than government. ![]() Johnny Nobody, Gordie Gee Whiz Return From Hiding Wexner and L Brands apparently have not yet figured out that women do not want to dress like tramps any more. Meanwhile, Wexner's L Brands sales and stock price are cratering. Wexner now says that Epstein misappropriated money a decade ago, but Wexner never filed charges. Onetime Les Wexner buddy Jeffrey Epstein apparently committed suicide in a New York jail, so now Wexner does not have to fear testimony from the alleged abuser of women. Wexner May Have Gotten Break When Epstein 'Checked Out' In a final irony, all of his media properties are about to be taken over by Gannett-linked companies. The late John Wolfe was not a fan of Gannett and refused to sell it The Dispatch. The new company will be still known as the Gannett Co. Interestingly, GateHouse, that purchased the other Wolfe media holdings, the Columbus Dispatch and its subsidiaries, four years ago, is merging with Gannett Co. TEGNA was split off a few years ago from Gannett Co., that was better known for its newspapers, such as USA Today. Weather anchor Ashlee Baracy may be gone after she protested too much and made a publicity grab when a few misguided viewers complained about her appearance during her recent pregnancy.Įxpect 20 percent fewer local journalists under Channel 10's employ by the end of the year.ĭo not be surprised if TEGNA conducts a national talent search to replace Revish and hires someone who surges to the top of the market in a relatively short time. Sports anchor Dom Tiberi has outlived his usefulness with his perpetual fawning over local sports personalities and teams. Scott Light, whose anchoring and Sunday public affairs work might be described as light weight, probably will not be around much longer. Jackson's peppy, tabloid style that led her to prominence at Channel 6 and fit that station's audience, but it turned off Channel 10's more refined viewers. Yolanda Jackson, Revish's co-anchor, never really fit in at Channel 10 and likely will be let go. Several major air personalities are likely to depart because they do not fit in with TEGNA's hard-hitting investigative journalism and aggressive promotion of dynamic on-air personalities. It will relentlessly increase revenue and cut costs. The third largest television chain in the country did not get big by being sentimental toward its employees, like the Wolfe family was. TEGNA paid more than half a billion dollars for Channel 10, its two sister sports-talk radio stations and a TV station in Indianapolis. Jerry Revish, the premier TV news anchor in the Columbus market, already announced his impending retirement. TEGNA has taken over WBNS-TV from the Wolfe family. ![]()
