DanCooper Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 A lot different than Syracuse. The local guy up there has Hannity’s time slot. Just shows people like a guy who stands up to the Man, instead of a boot licker. BJ will be replaced by syndication. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThelmaHarper Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 That show has become a waste. Its the same callers daily. None of them would get air time in a real market. I click it off as soon as Beverly is announced. That woman needs to go to the senior center to do her reminiscing. If WNBF can't fill the time with good information and actual news, they should just pull the plug. Bob does a fine job writing and reporting news. They should let him to that and get Marble Mouth Whyte off the air. This area's leadership has shown time and again that they don't want actual news reporting and the vast majority of the public has shown they don't pay attention. We get what we deserve.

Just wake up, "S, S & Shave," have a cup of coffee, then approach the mic and try to pull a show out of his a**. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 I enjoy Binghamton Now depending on the guests. I hope the new time slot works well. I don't need someone screaming about politics all the time. MSM and syndicated hosts has that 24/7 if that's what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony was an entertaining local personality… Bob is better suited as station’s reporter on staff. If Mosher wasn’t working out, more syndication is the cheapest solution. You don’t have to pay benefits to Clay Travis and Buck Sexton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Hampster Posted July 19, 2021 Report Share Posted July 19, 2021 It sounds like Bob is now hosting First News and Binghamton Now. Which is why they cut Binghamton now by an hour and are starting it earlier. There are no afternoon news breaks today, which Bob used to cover. Doug is gone. Bob’s schedule has changed to cover Doug’s mornings. There is no longer local afternoon news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common Sense Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 I don't want to see any of them lose their jobs. And I think having a local call in talk show is a good thing. I personally don't listen very often: probably ten minutes a week at most. One too many "Vinny" calls was enough for me to find other alternatives. There were other issues, too - interrupting callers, talking more than listening...just not my cup of tea. It's a gamble when you go from being a news reporter to talk show host. It potentially exposes Bob's biases, which could damage the credibility as a news man he's built up for a few decades. But I'm hoping they don't pull the plug entirely. Like it or not - with all its imperfections - Binghamton Now serves a purpose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WNBF needs a new local host who isn’t so biased. My opinion might be a little flawed since I am only an occasional listener but I don't think it's so much that he's biased, which he may very well be, but that he just can't help himself with the snark and sarcasm. The last time I listened a few days ago on the way into work I heard a caller who really was making some great points and was calm and level headed and all of Bob's responses were just snark and sarcasm, like he wasn't really absorbing what the caller was talking about and wasn't really engaging in any sense...just trying to demonstrate "cleverness". That was followed up by what sounded like a very old woman...(Betty??) with a mundane stream of consciousness..and no matter WHAT Bob said in response she didn't even seem to hear him...she just kept on keeping on with whatever was happening in her day...riveting radio. Thank God I had reached my destination and could click out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Section4Mike Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 Makes no difference to me. Yes BJ is heavy with his opinions, find me a talk show host who isn’t, but the problem I myself with him is when he at times inserts his opinions or snark comments WHILE reading the news. SAVE it for after you have read the news Bobby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Met Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Bob Joseph has a vagina. Garbage show and have zero remorse for the new time slot or format haha. He’s such a pussy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 I just heard a WNBF ad touting it self as live and local. With the recent changes there doesn't seem to be much local content anymore. I wonder how that will play with local advertisers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaz Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 What's going on at WNBF? Last 2 days they are just regurgitating the gawd awful red-eye-radio stuff instead of the usual local morning programming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Met Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 He hasn’t tweeted anything in 3 days…he usually is very active on there. Hmmmm somethings up. Local radio is pretty cutthroat so nothing would surprise me. Maybe him and Vinny ran off to Provincetown together? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
