WP:BLP, relying exclusively on primary sources with not a whit of reliable source coverage in sight, of a television personality in a single media market. The claim of notability does not pass WP:NMEDIA our inclusion rules for television personalities, and the quality of sourcing provided doesn't get him over WP:GNG — so it has to be deleted.

 * Comment - WP:NMEDIA is not relevant here as it does not discuss individuals. WP:ENT or WP:ARTIST might be applicable, but I can't see how the subject would meet either.  GoldenRing (talk) 04:42, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. I'm pretty sure it did once cover television and radio personalities, deprecating single-market local personalities who didn't have broader national name recognition — but you're right, it doesn't seem to do so anymore. Rationale revised accordingly. Bearcat (talk) 05:00, 9 September 2014 (UTC)
