From his wife:
THIS WILL (HOPEFULLY) BE MY LAST POST ON
THE SUBJECT -
1.
'Thomas Papa-ray, with a bunch of other St. Louis loving, music loving
people helped to start KDHX-FM.
2.
He personally took out a loan, and donated thousands to support the
station, along with helping to raise tens of thousands of dollars for the station.
3.
He, along with all of his friends, LOVED the station and promoted it
everywhere he went. No self-promotion,
just KDHX (whether we were in the U.K., Sierra Nevada World Music Festival,
etc. etc.)
4.
For 35 YEARS, he volunteered, and did a killer radio show.
5.
Arbitron ratings (according to KMOX) showed that his radio show was #3
in St. Louis.
6.
Hundreds of people in the last 2 weeks have protested, complained, wrote
letters pulled their memberships/donations, and vouched for his character -
even when Kelly Wells called him a bully and harasser.
7.
Inducted to the Hall of Fame along with Art Dwyer, Ron Edwards, John
McHenry, and Denny Clancy.
8.
Not even allowed at the KDHX meeting last night to defend himself.
Tom's time is over - but it's not for all
of the DJs who LOVE their job. It's time
for new management,
KELLY WELLS, IT'S TIME FOR YOU TO GO TO
SAVE THIS STATION
