David Lee Roth Continues to Bomb

There's absolutely no doubt in anyone's mind that David Lee Roth's days on terrestrial radio are numbered. His ratings continue to dive as time goes on and there is just no way that CBS Radio can keep this up. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, DLR is the best advertisement for satellite radio. The rating's for Stern's West Coast replacement, Adaom Carolla, are even worse.

"It’s a matter of waiting for the blow up," said Tom Taylor, editor of Inside Radio.

"Somebody is going to replace David Lee Roth," said Michael Harrison, publisher of Talkers magazine. "Radio people do much better on radio than non-radio people."

Meanwhile, the question still remains whether the rumored addition of Opie and Anthony to the K-Rock lineup will actually happen. Sean Hannity outright asked both Opie and Anthony whether the rumors are true, whether they will be replacing David Lee Roth.

"We've been negotiating with them [CBS Radio] for a few weeks now," said Greg "Opie" Hughes, "We've got some major hurdles that have occurred though now. When it first was presented to us two weeks ago, it was a done deal. We kind of are at a standstill at this point."

"We would never comprimise the integrity of the satellite radio program that people have enjoyed," said Anthony. When asked whether XM was amenable to this concept, Anthony responded, "That's the thing that needs to be worked out before we go onto any terrestrial radio station."
