Re: Scott Winters Joins Parler and asks others to follow

I noticed the same thing. The one that got me was about driving to Indiana to get a Burger and a Beer. Dude - there are Hundreds if not thousands of restaurants that could use the support locally for take out etc and you feel like you have to drive to Indiana so you can sit in a bar for an hour? Fun...

Re: Scott Winters Joins Parler and asks others to follow

So if I join the Nazi Party or the KKK to "Observe the latest in social happenings" - no one would have no problem with that as I might just be "getting a taste" and seeing what's out there? I'm not saying Scott is a terrible person or even believes in all what's on there - but the OPTICS would cert...

I'm not a "Lib" or Liberal - whatever you think that is. Nice Try though. Thanks for missing my point (again) and continuing your political screed.

Dude.

Scott Winters Joins Parler and asks others to follow

Uh - I'm no genius, but being a current member of the media and then going on your facebook page asking people to follow you on parler (which has been banned by apple, google and amazon) may not exactly be the best career move, let alone makes you look like a fool. Just my opinion. His facebook over...

Re: Phil Tower is latest iHM budget cut victim

EVERYONE who works at places like Iheart, Cumulus, Townsquare etc all know the deal. You're a number on a spreadsheet, and it's a matter of WHEN, not if. They all know it. Sad but true. No one is surprised anymore. It's not about ratings, job performance, work ethic... it's purely about bottom lines...

Re: BIG 101.3 FM — Fun Hits You Know

I enjoy everyone's positive "Hopeful" outlook on the station, but let's be honest with each other. It AINT gonna happen. Reese nailed it - Iheart isn't going to "hire" anyone to do anything. They won't be brining in any talent (Out of town VT does not count) They'll just throw whatever crumbs are le...

Re: BIG 101.3 FM — Fun Hits You Know

Let me guess... there will be: No Marketing, No promotion, No Budget, No "Live" jocks to speak of, corporate playlist being programmed out of market, a poor cookie cutter website and a format aimed at 60+? Please tell me how and why this station would ever get anything above a 2 share 12+? I guess w...

Re: Nielsen audio ratings roundup: WLAV's ratings are at multi-decade RECORD LOW levels! WTNR remains a dumpster fire!

For what it's worth, I listen to WVGR (Michigan Radio) 95% of the time . The only commercial station I would ever flip to anymore is WOOD-AM for top of the hour news if NPR for some reason doesn't have it for some reason. Nothing else interests me or offers me anything worth listening to.

Re: Spring 2019 Nielsen Audio Quarterly Report (Updated: 07-23-19)

As someone in their 30's... I can attest 98% of commercial FM/AM radio offers me nothing and no reason to listen. The only thing I find myself listening to on a regular basis is Local NPR affiliates (with local/national news and informational programming) and occasionally something random on AM on l...

Re: 101.3 adds a bunch of 90's music to playlist; keeps horrible Cleveland morning show

With the exception of when the station flipped from WCUZ Country to WBFX when Bob and Tom were on the top of their game, this station slowly but surely became background. All Marketing stopped, the good "live" talent was gone (Aris, Alison, Matt, Joe etc) it has just been a declining wasteland - for...

Re: The New Jethro FM

Listened to this for the first time yesterday. Overall, I quite liked the mix and I thought overall the sound of the station was good. Hope it does well! I also hear several spots played in the few hours that I listened.

Re: Another Local Radio Fail

Two Words: Budget Cuts. The once mighty WOOD is a shadow of itself. I go back to, commercial radio makes itself more and more irrelevant every day. I wish this wasn't the case, but this is another example. Why even tune in? There is VERY little on commercial radio that it offers you can't find elsew...
