Gary Pizzati is a Dead Man Walking

No Cumulus henchman, in my opinion, has bitten the big one more than regional executive Gary Pizzati.

Those who have had negative dealings with Pizzati have described his behavior as being difficult to say the least and I know of an ex-manager who thinks he was sexist among other things.

Pizzati is blindly loyal to CEO Lew Dickey and blind, suck up, brownnose loyalty is valued more at Cumulus than competence.

Can we talk here?

In fact, outstanding human relations skills can get you fired in the Dickey Dynasty.

Play acting is encouraged which is why that sly fox Mike “Benedict Arnold” McVay can make a knife in the back seem oh so nice.

But something has gone seriously wrong.

Pizzati is stinking up just about everything he touches.

And Cumulus is falling apart unable to show ad sales revenue growth.

Someone’s head has to roll.

And it won’t be anyone with a last name beginning with “D” and ending in “y”.

And if Cumulus employees think Pizzati was bad, be careful what you wish for.
