COCHRAN OUT AT CC BOISE
Don Day | March 8, 2007Jeff Cochran is leaving Clear Channel Boise to take a similar position with Clear Channel in Salt Lake City. His last day in the Park Blvd. studios will be March 14th.
Cochran spent about five years with the Boise radio group.
Update: Obviously I meant March 14th… not January. Grr.
Hey…just for fun, lets keep a body count on Kevin Goodwin at peak. With Arron going…….I count 4!
Current “Jeff-toll” is 31 and counting…
I think this entire “Cochran” thread deserves a RE-POSTING, as it is BY FAR the largest thread in Idaho Radio News history!
Read ‘em and weep…

Anyone else…?
Be sure to add yourself to the “Jeff Cochran Hall of Fame”.
Maybe we can have a support group formed…
“Hi, my name is (your name here), and I was hired by Jeff one day, and fired the next…”
Someone send him a box of PAMPRIN…
actually, for complete accuracy, i was let go from Lite 108. i did mornings there with robin scott. steve shannon…the first casualty …was at mix. (me doth guess that private dick is new to the area, maybe? our firings happened over five years ago, when cochrane first waltzed into town.)
Ian, apparently you’re me now. Even after 2 posts of trying to correct him.. :)
Why does anyone care?
obviously, someone does, jayo, me boyo, or else no one would be responding to this post! its just fun discussion…and for some of us, just some good ol’ reminiscing!
I guess resignations are being included in this “list of casualties”?
The problem with this list is the assumtion that none of these individuals did anything to deserve it.
Yeah, I got let go at Magic, not Kiss. I’ve never worked a Kiss. Got a job offer though…
many didn’t, rocket….thats the rub.
Rocket, I have to agree with Ken – most of those people
didn’t deserve it – it was just Jeff’s fickle hand of fate. Or his God complex…. UGH
Alrighty, Jac…my bad.
I didn’t think Ian was ever there, but posting after midnight as the coffee has definitely exited the system, definitely has it’s drawbacks.
Apologies to you too, Ken–what was I thinking…?
Steve and Ken…???
By the way, was Steph fired by Jeff too, or was it Deb?
Now, Ladies and Gentlemen,
The REVISED “Jeff-toll”…
