Bill was a recurring news guy for Big Sports 590 and probably a few other Journal Broadcast Group stations that I probably don't listen to.

Bill Jensen

The Omaha City Weekly has a story about Bill Jenson, here's an introduction...

Quote:

You might not have known Bill Jensen’s name, or could put a face to him. But chances are, you have heard his voice.
The longtime broadcaster is the “voice” of the College World Series and the Omaha Royals in his job as public address announcer at Rosenblatt Stadium. And, until last Friday, he had delivered thousands of newscasts on various Omaha radio stations.
But just 18 months short of his retirement, Jensen was shown the door by management at Journal Broadcast Group, which owns KXSP (590 AM), one of several stations for which Jensen provided news and information through the day.
“I think in this business, you always wonder about your job security,” Jensen said. “But what happened is one of the natures of our business. Changes are made and they sometimes involve personnel.”
