Sorry Kevyn will no longer be on 107. I had already moved on to other things with the exception of Kevin Burger. She was the best thing they had going. Funny but sincere. I am through with the giggling and private jokes! Up to date and timely for who, Thank you

I cannot believe that they are getting rid of Kevyn. At least she covered "real" topics. They should have dumped Collen and the Boys (really pathetic somedays) and the "I'll just sit and read the tabloids on the air" LoJ combo. Even more pathetic. Whatever you do at FM107, don't mess with Ian and Margary as they are irreplacable.

Gossip as a Mission Statement? I will be tuning out. I stumbled upon FM107 when I heard Kevyn and Colleen Lindstrom....Talking about some real issues, but with humor. I will miss the old format.

There is a serious consequence to lowering the quality of media--we will no longer be educated and informed about anything that can make our society and this world a better place. I tuned into 107.1 in the first place because of Kevyn Burger. I could relate to her. I am ashamed to admit how much I have listened to the station just because it was programmed in on the car ...

Kevyn was the only "real" person on there...no pretentiousness, unlike everyone else (except maybe Julia, but Lori tips the scale to make it unbearable). I have a real hard time listening to the station now. I commute to my job quite a distance so I have a lot of time to listen to the radio but usually have to turn it off of that station after 20 minutes at the ...

Just another example of a radio station dumbing it down for the masses. Too bad, because if they want advertisers that sell sex toys, or advertise bars and clubs, they're headed in the right direction. The market that was listening to Kevyn was slightly older, more affluent and in tune with more affluent advertisers. Hope 107.1 has a fun time paying their bills ...

What's up with Alix Kendall on Fox News 9 - she hasn't been on in a couple of weeks and no one is saying if she is on vacation or has the day off?

FM107 certainly has moved in a different direction. I'm not so sure it is in the RIGHT direction; not just because they let Kevyn Burger go, but for a lot of the mindless nothing that goes on now. I have found myself listening less and less for quite some time now. At first I thought it was due to my job duties getting in the way but later realized that it had more ...

If FM 107.1 is turning strictly toward pop culture and celeb news, then I am tuning out! Kevyn added a nice touch to the day and I will miss it. Regarding your vote - leave lori and julia out of it!

I do think that they could find someone more interesting than Shaletta.....please don't bring back that fat **** Colleen..........keep her on the weekend show when I don't listen. I'm sure when you make comments like this you're looking for a reaction, so I should really think twice about giving you what you want here. But, come...
Judged: 1 I, like others here, have listened to FM107 for many years. I too, think that that quality of the shows has really slipped in the last couple years. I always enjoyed Kevyn's show. I think she was best paired with Colleen and now think she is a victim of circumstance being paired with Sheletta which lead to her demise. I think she tried to make the best of it but it wasn't a strong/logical match of personality and styles. I...

I would alternate listening to 107.1 with public radio, feeling that I heard an interesting blend of information that way. Our household income is a little over $150,000, which should appeal to some advertisers, and I'm taking both my ears away...
Judged: 1 1 1 What a great loss! To many of those of us who grew up listening to radio, Kevyn was one of the last important, fun, intellegent entertaining radio personalities. It was because of her show I listened faithfully to the station. Now, I'll find a new station to enjoy. Her program did change in the last few months, and not for the better.

I agree. I agree. What is this station's problem? Adios 107!
Jean wrote: I cannot believe you did this to Kevyn. "Colleen and the boys" are a little on the "dirty talk" side. I can't believe it is acceptable to keep them on and let her go. I've never given my opinion before on anything to do with your station. I really think I am done with your station, like totally. I enjoyed Kevyn so much and I did not enjoy the antiques of the southern accent person. Do...
Judged: 1 I am sure Kevyn will land on her feet. Isn't odd that a station that was started with a mission as a voice for women (intelligent ones, supposedly) is going down this road of fluff and gossip? I remember when Dr Laura slammed the station when management dropped her, five years ago or so, and said the station was going to concentrate on the "wrong values" or some other Dr Laura diatribe. It took quite a while,...
I am so sad that Kevyn is no longer on the air. I loved listening to her talk about other issues besides celebrity gossip(who cares)! I think they made a HUGE mistake on not renewing Kevyn's contract. I wish the best of luck to Kevyn!
