- Nebraska Radio Host Gary Sadlemyer to Retire
Longtime Omaha talk radio personality Gary Sadlemyer will retire from iHeartMedia’s heritage news/talk 1110 KFAB(AM). His retirement is effective Dec. 12. Sadlemyer’s nearly 50-year career with the station began in November 1976 and included several years as its program director. For more than three decades of his KFAB tenure, Sadlemyer anchored the “KFAB Morning News.” He also has to his credit the first live, daily talk show in the station’s 100-year history. Sadlemyer also was heard on Nebraska Cornhuskers’ football broadcasts from 1980–1995. An iHeart release said that he will continue to provide content for KFAB’s advertisers and will also be heard on the station as a fill-in host.

Federal Communications Commission Chair Brendan Carr has called for an end to the government shutdown while also providing updates on the agency’s ongoing work if the shutdown continues through the end of the year. The FCC had a surprisingly-full agenda at its October open meeting this week, and has already made plans for the next one. During his post-meeting press conference, Carr said that the agency would hold another meeting on Thursday, Nov. 20, for votes on items and issues that the agency had been working on prior to the shutdown. Carr did not specify what items the commission might consider in November or December. Those agendas are typically announced about three weeks prior to the open meeting. In remarks to reporters, Carr, a Republican appointee, complained about the shutdown, referring to is as “the Schumer shutdown.” “I think there’s been a dozen votes to try to reopen the government,… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.2 days ago - Price Check: Part 1 of the cost of a Thanksgiving dinner
