Ted Bird

February 20, 2010 @ 10:46

Ted Bird is a Montreal broadcaster who recently left CHOM-FM on his own accord. After 32 years in the business, including 25 years of getting up in the middle of the night to co-host a morning show, Ted decided to pack it in.

Apparently Ted ran into a few creative-freedom issues at the radio station, so rather that suck it, he spat it out and walked away.

He has mighty big nuts.

But all that aside, Ted has done the right thing. During his sabbatical Ted has decided to do what I did after I was tossed out of 2 St. Clair back in '05. He's decided to blog.

It's good therapy.

Ted and I go way back to the early 80's when I was doing the sports beat for CFNY and he was doing the same thing for CFTR

Bookmark this. You'll enjoy it.

Ted's a terrific writer...good addition Freddie.

I must know the history behind his abandonment of the show because everybody who's done the gig had been within an inch of doing the same.

Yes, your thoughts are very coherent! I'm absolutely agree with the way you think, it's quite rare to find someone like you. I'm currently thinking about the same topic with you, would you care to find out and share about your opinions? Thank you!
