Re: April Ratings

WJR at 1.7, perhaps an all time low.

Who is fired first?

Re: Jammin' Oldies

Not on a full market FM. Maybe a translator or throwaway AM for that coveted 0.2 share. It would be better than some of what is on these signals currently.

Re: 1270 to Begin

Isn’t the station required to provide a board op as part of a brokered/lease agreement? Anything else would indeed come out of Parker’s pocket.

I’ve been out of town the past few days so thanks for the update. May 16th sounded like a strange day to plan a debut- wouldn’t a Monday make more sense?

Re: New WWJ/WKBD Boss

A 10 PM newscast on channel 50 would be nice. Will be interesting to see if any additional heads roll. I'm still not over WWJ-TV refusing to break into programming on a wall-to-wall basis last August as a strong tornado ransacked I-96 near Webberville. Could their argument be it isn’t their market,...

Re: Local 4 buyout packages

Bernie being gone is about 25 years too late, but better late than never. There is a reason he bombed in New York.

Re: CFCO-FM 91.3 International Concurrence Granted

CHOK could use 103.3 ever since that was abandoned. They'll ditch 1070 first chance they get.

CFOS Owen Sound will be off AM soon too. That leaves Windsor and CKNX as the only AMs near Michigan (unless you count CFPL 980, which puts a marginal signal into Port Huron).

Re: Goff $212M/4 years

It's only a good contract if they win the Super Bowl. Otherwise, too much money.

Re: CFCO-FM 91.3 International Concurrence Granted

Despite the low power, it's much higher than 92.9. I'm guessing it's to replace 630. Chatham isn't very large and to my knowledge the station doesn't target anything outside of Kent County.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2024

They still aren't hitting. There is major concern. You can't make the playoffs with such a putrid offense.

Heard some high school (or were they junior high?) kids in that slot today talking about body piercings. A serious discussion, no comedy.

Recently saw the Ray Bradbury-penned Twilight Zone episode about the lady who helps raise the motherless children. It was excellent.
I was always fond of the Buster Keaton episode. It was different, and it's always nice to see Keaton in his later, comeback years.

Best part was the eclectic choices of music. Second was hearing a new generation on radio, and AM no less. Aaron especially has the passion.
