SYRACUSE — Sportsradio 620 WHEN sports director Jim Lerch is confirmed to be among the 1,800 fired nationwide by Clear Channel today.  Overall, the company says it has cut 9% of its staff.  Most of the cuts reportedly came from sales, but quite a few, like Lerch, came from the programming side.

As it gets later and later into June, many observers are watching and wondering: how come there’s been no word yet from Clear Channel about B104.7’s annual “BJAM” concert?  Has this long-running tradition run its course?
