The Bell Tolls For WRQX
When setting the stage for the announcement, Diamond, accompanied by his talented crew — Jimmy Alexander, Erica Hilary and Producer Blaire — tried to put the news in perspective, as he said, “In the overall scheme of things in the world, this is a small thing, but to those of us who have spent 30 years here at 4400 Jenifer Street, and as part of The Jack Diamond Morning Show, it’s a pretty big deal.”
Turning to Friday, Diamond promised a final show “full of surprises” from 6-9am, and a return trip between 6 and 7pm to say goodbye. Interestingly, more than once Jack said, cryptically, “The Jack Diamond Morning Show isn’t going anywhere.” You are advised to watch this space for updates.
