TOLEDO: WSPD News Director Out

OMW hears that long-time WSPD/1370 Toledo news director Tom Watkins has left the Clear Channel talk station after 7 years.

The Clear Channel Toledo cluster recently hired Cassie Wilson to oversee news at all of the company's stations. Wilson is the wife of WSPD program director and afternoon drive host Brian Wilson, and also anchors newscasts in afternoons on WSPD.

Ears in the market tell us that newly-minted 6-7 PM "Eye on Toledo" talk show host Kevin Milliken has been heard doing news in the wake of Watkins' departure. Milliken recently came to WSPD after a stint reporting at NBC affiliate WNWO "NBC 24"...

Is this the Tom Watkins that was at WIMA in the early 90's?
