How to destroy a heritage classic rock station like MMQ

Fire popular morning show host and replace with syndicated out of market garbage (FBHW)
Add voice tracked shifts
Cut variety and go with corporate classic rock playlist
BINGO! Destroyed!

But I’m sure they’ll blame it on bad placement of books and/or say that 12+ numbers don’t matter to them 🙄🙄🙄

Yep when Deb left the morning show got worse, then FB&Suck Wings really messed it up.
I can't listen to 106 or 94.9 in the morning, terrible radio.
I think MMQ's direct competition is 92.9, how did they fare?
Did their ratings go up?

WLMI is Cruisin' 92-9, right? I actually rather dig that station. It comes in well on my home receiver and they've strayed from the well worn garbage a few times. When I do have the radio on, my TSL winds up being pretty damn long.

It seems like turning MMQ into a Townsquare Corporate-sounding station didn't go over well with their longtime listeners.

I listened to Crusin' last week and it was actually a pleasant surprise. It had some of the longtime radio staples but also had some of the slightly deeper cuts as well.

Try listening to Clownsquare’s Banana 101.5 in Flint. They turned it from a decent sounding active rock station to complete 💩💩💩 by following the corporate playlist. Last time I tuned in, they were regularly playing burnt to a crisp classic rock from the 70’s followed by something current. Horrible mix.
