WFAN Radio is in Hot Water, With Only Itself to Blame

As the flagship sports radio station WFAN in New York City takes another image hit, Newhouse School Professor and pop culture expert Robert Thompson examined just what is wrong with the stations image: itself.

“The Fan is reaching new lows with its own set of unique humiliations,” Thompson wrote for the New York Post, “with Craig Carton’s arrest on Wednesday, the ill-fated dalliance with Chris Christie this summer and the impending, not-so-gentle shove out the door of its biggest name, Mike Francesa.” WFAN has recently been in hot water following the arrest of one of its main personalities, Craig Carton.
