WPGC-FM has canned its morning-drive host, DCRTV reported this morning and the man himself has confirmed. Big Tigger, ne Darian Morgan, had worked on-and-off at the CBS Radio-owned urban contemporary station since 1993. On Twitter, Tigger writes:
FYI @WPGC & I have agreed 2 part ways. The BigTiggerMorningShow W/ Free is no more! Thanx 4 ya support & stay tuned! Now Back 2 my Bday:) RT
He says he’s OK, though! “I hope no one has it twisted like we ain’t #STILL partying tonight@Parkat14th!!!! It was 1 of 4 jobs. I’m good. Tonight will be #EpicRT,” Tigger tweeted not long after.
DCRTV says a no-compete clause in his contract will keep Tigger off local airwaves for six months.
