Pesh might not be done “Fishing” in GR. He might have to “sit this one out” until he catches the big one.

Quit trying to sue former employees with toilet paper non-competes who bail the sinking ship and go to a sports talk station.

Re: Nielsen #'s for Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo and Muskegon

MW you’re being a bit harsh with 96.5 out of K-Zoo. Although we all know its not going to end well, you have to give them a couple books at least to see if they can get some traction. It’s a 2 book market. Those diaries have been going to the same households for decades. 1.8 is more than likely not ...

Re: Whoa whoa here she comes. Watch out boys she’ll chew you up! New Macdonald GM.

But is she a good cook and will she do the laundry? Lol. Possibly. What she will do for sure is constantly monitor your whereabouts going so far as to follow you to sales calls and driving by your residence to make sure you are working. If she cant do it she’ll have the person with the highest prob...

Re: WCSG is new #1 radio station (AQH share) in April Nielsen survey

WCSG and WJQK total an 11 share making Christian CHR the dominant format in GR. Even when you combine SNX, Lite, and Hot with their total 12 share it’s obvious where listener loyalty is musically at this stage of the market. Is it diary placement or has the market shifted based on other factors? Chi...

Re: February Nielsen #'s - Grand Rapids

What I'm really curious about is: How many of you honestly believe that station "ratings" are accurate? And if you do, why do you believe that? I've always been skeptical of it from a statistical standpoint, though much the same with TV ratings and many other polls and I am really big fan of statis...

He should make sure to keep his attorney on speed dial and read the fine print of Finteri’s contract. Especially the non-compete section.

Re: Gello out at 105.1 The Bounce

MW the station launched in early July. They hired Al Payne as PD in September. And didn’t fully staff up until December with “Bounce Ambassadors.” That is a lifetime of neglect for a new station. Gotta’ be better prepared.

Re: Which local radio station will have the courage to editorially defend serious gun control measures?.

R.I.P to those that have been killed by senseless gun violence. Families, friends, loved ones. So many affected. But we have become numb as a society to events like Atlanta and Boulder and the countless occurrences that have preceded them. They make our news cycle for a few days and sadly we just wa...

Re: Can the last one at DRQ turn out the lights?

Station flips are expensive. I think they’ll stay the course.

As for the building in general...seems pretty toxic. With GM Finateri suing anyone that wants to leave the sinking ship, crying “non-compete, non-compete”, I doubt they’ll be able to attract any worthwhile talent.

Re: #'s wise, Something IS afoot.

These Top40 numbers are the result of SNX, Lite & Hot all sharing the same music with nothing special between the records. Obviously, listeners just don’t care which crappy station they get their Arianna Grande from. Hot FM can for sure celebrate because from these numbers it looks like they had the...
