D/FW Radio: Chris Arnold Back On 105.3 The Fan

Chris Arnold
Chris Arnold has been uncharacteristically quiet, according to The Dallas Observer.

A usually prolific tweeter his account has been dormant for 11 days, and until Monday, his voice has been missing from The GBag Nation, the midday show he co-hosts on 105.3 The Fan.

CBS Radio hasn't commented publicly on Arnold's absence, but it's no accident that it came immediately after he was caught shamelessly plagiarizing a lengthy piece on Tony Romo. See original posting, Click Here.

CBS hasn't exactly cracked the whi, says the Observer. Arnold's punishment for blatantly stealing the work of another writer and passing it off as his own is a week's vacation.

Recently departed Fan host Richie Whitt predicted as much last week

"Easy for anyone with a journalism background to call for his firing...But this again proves that sports radio is more about entertainment than information," Whitt writes. "At a newspaper, Chris would be fired. On the radio, he gets a slap on the wrist."
