A blow to the already sucky world of Charlotte Radio!!
March 31st, 2008 by Cheris Hodges in MusicWhy? Why? Why?
I can’t believe the V 101.9 let Alysse Stewart go! She was so cool on air and in person!
From her Web site, www.alyssestewart.com:
March 31, 2008On my being fired today …
Although Aprils Fools Day is near. I have no jokes for you. I was fired today (it wasn’t called that). I’m told that CBS is doing some restructuring. UH, huh. I enjoyed chilling with all you each day. It was a pleasure hearing your personal stories and getting to share some of mine from –time-to-time.
My e-mail hasn’t been deleted at the time of this letter (some of you say you are shocked in so many words). I am too. Considering the slot I worked was always in the dumps ratings wise. I got top ratings for that shift. Even though the programming of the show to a certain degree held me down I still did a good damn job.
It’s like I told HR, My supervisor and the witness to my kick in the ass, at least you didn’t fire me as soon as I came back from maternity leave (I almost lasted 30 days after returning). Maybe that’s why my photo and bio went missing from the web while I was out. (maybe)?
There is a lot that I could say about the behind the scenes mess there but I wont. I have far too much class for that. I just wish I could have heard the “honest truth.†But oh well, it is what it is. It could be worse I suppose. “I wondered why B* M******* was in the building on Friday.†He even had the nerve to talk to me about life after radio. Why bro man have to rub his new gig in my face? ☺
Well I think I have said enough. I just wanted to make sure you knew the truth. Someone should have it. I will be just fine – even better. I always land on my feet. This time won’t be any different.
Alysse
She will be missed on the air.

Didn’t alysse just return from having a baby? Talk about bad timing. It’s like they waited for her to come back to do her in. Charlotte radio does suck.
