AM 1110 Off The Air?

K.M. Richards said:
Without overquoting, I still believe the petition will fall on deaf ears, to mix metaphors.

I do not believe that the players wanted the situation on 1110 to happen as it did. I very strongly suspect that there were programming plans in place and an unknown "something" happened to derail same.

The petition would do little more than aggravate them by reminding them that they have a mess to clean up.

IF they read it. Your presumption about "the people who are making decisions about the future" reading this thread is probably wishful thinking; the suits have better things to do than read the posts here. They'll treat the petition the same way.

Did you miss the part that Beasley and Radio One invited him to meet?

"234834578435 other WBT threads all over the place" <-- Stale threads. Said so yourself.

This thread started about WBT being off the air in April.

The petition to save WBT's legacy was started 1 month ago.

2 different conversations.

Sometimes, threads do get derailed, then get back on-topic, but in this case, it just morphed or maybe just expanded.
 
I heard a station ID this morning and it turns out my clock radio is on 107.9 WBT. I thought it was on WFAE (I turn it off quickly), but the people talking didn't sound quite sophisticated enough for that station. This particular clock radio is almost impossible to understand but I think when setting the frequency I started out on 88.1. No, it does not display the information that is needed to do ANYTHING.

Loop with no apparent end. No interest.

Petition that won't have any effect. No interest.

Might as well say 'WBT 1110. No interest."

They're just old... I wouldn't say "WBT 1110 no interest". Obviously there is with 11 pages and going. My point was simply that it's a different conversation.

1000+ signatures seem to matter in the world of petitions. It got someone's attention.
