O'Meara could push buttons for MP3s and talk up and down songs. The problem for Mikey is the ownership of 105.9 isn't going to pay him $200K (or whatever he was making at WJFK on that final contract) to do it. The economics of radio have changed. He would be lucky to get a gig for $75K. But, that's still a hell of a lot better than the $0 income he is making now.
