GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – A conservative talk show host has departed his role after 14 years.
WTAQ has announced that Jerry Bader will no longer host the Jerry Bader Show, which aired Monday through Friday from 9-11 am.
In addition to WTAQ in the Green Bay/Appleton market, Bader’s show aired on WHBL in Sheboygan and WSAU in Wausau/Stevens Point.
Bader joined parent company Midwest Communications, Inc. when it purchased WHBL in 2000, transferring to WTAQ four years later to become the station’s brand manager and mid-day talk host.
He transitioned to a part-time role in 2016, when he took a full-time position with MediaTrackers.org.
Operations Manager Jason Hillery says “we wish Jerry nothing but continued success with his career at MediaTrackers.org, and we are thankful for his years of service to the Northeast Wisconsin community and others in our state.”
Bader says “I appreciate all of the opportunities that Midwest Communications has given me, and I wish them all the best.”
WTAQ has begun its search for a replacement.
