Casey No Longer At The Bat
In a note to the staff later in the day, Casey cited many of the great WBZ personalities he had been privileged to work with over the years, including late, great market legends Dave Maynard, David Brudnoy and Paul Sullivan, as well as Gary LaPierre, Diane Stern, Anthony Silva, Paul Sullivan and Dan Rea, in particular.
Casey added, “I will cherish the memories of this place, of all of you and those that came before you. I will keep those memories with me. I will keep them a part of me even as I walk out the door today on my very last day at WBZ NewsRadio 1030.” Later, when reached by The Globe, Casey acknowledged that, while it had been a difficult day, he had only nice things to say about WBZ’s new owners, as he remarked, “The [iHeartMedia] people have been terrific with me — respectful and impressive.” [Image from Casey’s Twitter account]
