[AI-Generated Summary] Longtime afternoon host Pat White has been let go from NewsTalk 1190 WOWO after 14 years with the station, a move that left the veteran broadcaster "shocked" as he begins to seek new opportunities in radio. The station’s operations manager cited a desire to pivot toward a more "politically charged" format featuring increased social commentary and political news. To lead this new direction, the station has appointed Pat Miller, an 11-year veteran of WOWO’s Saturday morning slot and special assignment coverage, to take over the full-time afternoon position starting Monday. While White received a severance package and expressed interest in staying in the industry, Miller’s promotion marks a definitive strategic change for the station’s weekday lineup.
