Dan Dakich and ?107.5 The Fan? Part Ways in Indy. According to Awful Announcing?s story (https://awfulannouncing.com/radio/dan-dakich-out-indy-sports-radio-station-fan.html), Radio One sports talk station WFNI-AM/WIBC-HD2/W298BB ?107.5 The Fan? operations manager David Wood tweeted on Thursday (12/8) that it was Dan Dakich?s last day with the company and ?We wish him well in their future endeavors.? Dakich soon followed with his own tweet that said, ?Earlier today, I did my last showhttps://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/dakichdan.png (https://www.talkers.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/dakichdan.png) for Radio One. I want to thank Radio One, Jeff Smulyan and the whole team at Emmis for a great 14 years. Given the success of my show Don?t @ Me on Outkick and the busy holiday season, this is the perfect time to focus on one show and to make it the best I can possibly make it. I can?t thank all the listeners enough for 14 years of unbelievable fun and controversy. I?m not going anywhere. Catch me every day from 9-11 on Outkick on Don?t @ Me.? In Awful Announcing?s coverage, Brandon Contes writes about Dakich?s controversial history. ?Among the ?controversy? cited by Dakich in his announcement was a five-day suspension in 2019 from Emmis, which previously owned ?The Fan.? Emmis cited ?a failure (in 2018) on Dan?s part to adhere to the journalistic principles valued by Emmis,? when they handed Dakich the suspension. He garnered controversy again in 2020 when he called a high school basketball player a ?meth head? and threatened to ?beat the hell out of every school board member.? In 2021, ESPN investigated a Twitter feud between Dakich and a college professor who accused him of misogynistic comments and doxing her. Dakich parted ways with ESPN later that year.?
