A week after being announced as "Coming soon" to the PHLY Sports team, Anthony Gargano has been sued by 97.5 The Fanatic parent company...

"Anthony will be involved in many aspects of the network and at some point, fans will be able to watch him and listen to him on PHLY.”

“The post-Covid months have been a particularly challenging time in our industry," a Beasley Media Group spokesperson said.

"But the bottom line is: this week, Mike Lockhart will be returning... and I will be paying his full salary.

“Radio… apparently is in trouble, we’re finding out.”

Hoffman's departure joins several cuts to the company, as Beasley has slashed staff members in Tampa, Boston, New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Detroit in addition to Las Vegas.

Co-host Bob Cooney added to the sentiment. "It sucks... I've been in this business a long, long time and yesterday was the worst day ever.

Beasley will give News/Talk 720 KDWN. Audacy already owns a news/talk station in the market with 840 KXNT.

"You know, fans in every market are a little bit different. So I think there is something to be learned from us here, but I don't think you could just replicate it in ten different markets and expect that exact the same success."

Smith is joining Beasley's board of directors.
