This happens quite a bit when a famous media personality retires or dies after many years at the station.

Why not donate money to cancer research in Jamie's memory? Oh that's right - I forgot - Entercom is CHEAP.

I think donating money to a cancer resarch charity would be a great idea, but Entercom is cheap which is why it won't happen.

He wasn't good enough for that.
Donald Trump was and is the best president this country has ever had. And he will return to glory as our leader again.

Here is the video posted by 97.1FM. It is obvious the people who worked with Jamie were affected by his passing: https://youtu.be/r3ncPG_A4tE

I hope it's the former too.

It's got to be very tough for all the employees at 97.1 the Ticket right now as he was their good friend and collegue. They all seemed to be very close to him.

This is a nice honor for a great guy. Better than having “from the (fill in the law firm name) studio”. But I don’t really consider him as an icon in local broadcasting lore.

Oh it will be the Sam Bernstein studio as soon as someone sponsors it. They'll just have a plaque outside the door at the station and that's it.
