WIHT (Hot 99.5)/Washington, D.C. PD Tommy Chuck Set For Shoulder Surgery, Has Fun With E-mail To Staffers

Knapp, Chuck

The folks at iHEARTMEDIA Top 40 WIHT (HOT 99.5)/WASHINGTON, D.C. have obviously gotten comfortable with how the nation's capitol does business. In a letter channeling a WHITE HOUSE spokesperson, PD TOMMY CHUCK writes, "This morning, at 8:30 local time, letters from AMERICA’s Program Director TOMMY CHUCK were delivered to AMERICA’s SVP/Programming JEFF KAPUGI and AMERICA’s Market Pres. MICHAEL PREACHER, informing them of his decision to invoke Section 3 of the 25th Amendment, thereby voluntarily transferring his powers and duties to AMERICA’s APD and American Radio Presenter TOBY KNAPP."

With no reason not to continue in this mode, the letter continues, "This transmission transfers his duties, therefore, AMERICA’s APD is now serving as AMERICA’s Acting PD. This peaceful and routine transfer of power will end when AMERICA’s PD transmits a second written declaration to the Market Leadership advising that he is resuming those powers, effective immediately. 

"AMERICA’s PD TOMMY CHUCK will be subject to anesthesia due to a routine surgery to repair his shoulder and unable to carry out the duties of his office. Following the procedure, CHUCK will recover at his country home in D.C.’s MARYLAND suburbs. In the interim, all WIHT strategic assets, activations and personalities will continue to maintain their high level of entertaining engagement on air and online, and operations related to JINGLE BALL 2017 and other tentpole event activities, as well as the continued liberation of WASHINGTON, D.C. from the scourge of uninspired content, will remain at a high state of readiness. The thoughts and prayers of the entire administration are with CHUCK, First Lady ALI RAY and their children at this time."
