Karel loses gig at KNGY-FM

Karel, who lost his job at KGO-AM after an obscenity laced tirade about Joe the Plumber, has been terminated by KNGY-FM “Energy 92.7” after four months. Karel, whose real name is Charles Karel Bouley, said on his own blog that he was told he was let go because of financial reasons. “It’s a new show and so as ratings tend to do, they drop off at first and then rebuild. The building process isn’t happening fast enough for management so the money men (and women) said, stop,” Karel wrote. The station plays music oriented to an LGBT audience, and talk apparently didn’t fit in. He’s still on Monterey’s KRXA-AM (540) and he told blogger Rich Lieberman that is looking for another San Francisco station, and has talked to John Scott of KKGN “Green 960.” (Photo via advocate.com)
