Florida, Jan 8 (THAINDIAN NEWS) In a surprise development, one half of the ‘Scott and Erica Morning Show’ has been fired. Erica Lee has been fired from the Mix 105.1’s show. They used to host the show for 20 years and McKenzie told listeners that 19 years was one of the best runs in radio, anywhere. Scott was also shocked with the development and said he knew it wouldn’t last forever but the end is something “surreal”.

The historic team of Scott and Erica were the staple of Central Florida morning drive radio. Channel 2 CBS Orlando readers are voicing today split decisions whether they would stay as listeners now to MIX, or leave. The listeners are shocked over this sudden development and are quite miffed at Erica’s removal.

Erica Lee also confirmed her firing and said, “It’s been a nice long run,” she said. “I will definitely miss all the listeners.” And from tomorrow, Scott McKenzie will still be on the air, along with Jay, the producer. Erica said the news took her by surprise … though, really, after 30 years in radio, nothing surprises her. “I understand the business.” And she said that she hopes to spend much of the next six months volunteering. “Just because I’m not associated with the station doesn’t mean I don’t want to be out there. I mean, I assume the nonprofits still need help, right?” and after that she would again like to get back to work, because she likes to keep working. However she doesn’t have any prospective employer in mind, but at the same time she wont mind working in the afternoons.
