Never mind. Nick Anthony, who announced his decision to leave WKDD (96.5-FM) only Thursday, has been hired to program Cleveland newstalk station WWWE (1100-AM).

He starts next week. Among his new duties: boss of "shock radio" host Gary Dee. Last week Anthony told his coworkers and the Beacon Journal that he was quitting to expand his part-time consulting business into a full-time job. He had even signed an agreement to add WKDD to his list of clients. The terms of Anthony's old WKDD contract prohibit him from working for a competitor for one year after leaving.

But WKDD waived the non-compete clause. The company "didn't want to stand in his way, even though contractually we could have," said WKDD General Manager Dick Lumenello. When Anthony was asked last week, point-blank, whether he he would be especially nervous about working with someone who will sit right across the hall from WDOK (102.1-FM), WWWE's sister station and a direct competitor of WKDD's.

Five days later he signed with WWWE. The person who hired Anthony, WWWE General Manager Harvey Simms, insisted Tuesday that he learned Anthony was available only by reading the article in Friday's Beacon Journal. Anthony says the same thing.

"If people think you're happy, nobody assumes you're available. As soon as they find out you are, they assume you might be," Anthony said Tuesday. The new deal allows him to continue his outside consulting. "What made the (new) job desirable is the fact that I could continue to expand my consulting without the pressure of having it be my only source of income." Anthony succeeds Eric Stevens, an outside consultant who doubled as program director. Simms worked alongside Anthony for six years at WKDD's sister station, WSLR (1350-AM).

The ink is barely dry on Anthony's consulting contract with WKDD. Would Lumenello see a conflict of interest in sharing Anthony with WWWE?
