They dumped Cliff Mass was created by davidG
For using his popular radio spot on KUOW to politic for better local radar and improved math/science education in this State.

Using celebrity and the bully pulpit for such goals - disgusting..

A little more on the subject:

Steve Scher, host and executive producer of "Weekday," gave Mass the boot this week because the University of Washington meteorologist kept veering away from weather and into commentary.

Amar? I think a weekly Amar show would be very entertaining and informative . You should apply!

some pm's to me from others here filled in some background on the personality of Cliff Mass, and why it was fair that he was removed from the popular KUOW program. OK, I appreciate the input. On the other hand, I appreciated Cliffs' on-air content, persona and style, including his forays off-topic which, it seems to me, were presented in the public's best interest.

He is back on air at the other regional NPR station, KPLU, 88.5 again on Friday mornings.
