Not a single post on Mike McCoy leaving WNCI as of Friday?

Come on!

Dave Robbins, Neil Sharpe, Mike McCoy...who's the next WNCI PD?
 
The queston that you must ask that does anybody cares? A voice tracker, er I mean "local radio personality" is moving to another CC station.

Real radio news is when CC goes bankrupt.

Looks like you are looking forward to that day, if and when CC goes bankrupt. Do you have anything good to say about CC?

I think Bob Conners is doing an excellent job with his morning show and his ratings prove it. He must be doing something right.
 
I like it that "Clear" and "Channel" both begin with the letter "C", and I try to incorporate that same alliteration philosophy into my featured artist pairings.

Who's the next PD? Hopefully one who doesn't play the same 10 songs over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and...... I could keep going.

Ha! He was an ------ on this board, when he did come on the board. Who will replace him? WNCI has been tired for awhile anyway.

If by 'tired', you mean one of the most successful Top 40's in the country for a long time, then yes, WNCI is very tired.

You mean...playing the HITS, like CHR is supposed to be doing? Focusing on the short attentions spans/TSL of 18-34 year-old females, like CHR is supposed to be doing? My guess is the next PD will do the same.

Best wishes to Mr. McCoy in the Motor City!
 
No, no, what WNCI is supposewd to do is add 10000 titles to it's playlist and only play obscure and unknown songs. That's sure to get it a 60 share!

Ah! That's that new thing. What's it called...sarcasm?
 
That doesn't matter if CC still losing money they will get rid of him and replace him with a cookie cutter sydicated show. Look what happen with Joel Riley. Even Corby was upset when CC replacing Joel with Glenn Beck. Corby even says that was a stupid move. Then he went on saying on his show that if CC can get some sort of "robot" to replace him he be gone.

CC finacial problems are their own. They ok a 400 million dollars contract and a 200 million dollars mutiyear contracts when they don't have the revenue.

I listen to Cost to Cost and the Bengals on WLZT HD2 FM.
 
Michael is one of the good guys in our industry, and he just got a very-well-deserved upgrade. Not for nothing, but he's replacing Channel 955's interim PD, who has a little side job as the Program Director of the legendary Z100.
 
Well, good luck to him but WNCI's music has SUCKED for awhile and I don't see it getting any better unless someone wants to come in and bring the big city sound to Columbus like it should be brought.
 
I stopped listening to WNCI when they played Donny Osmond's - Soldier of Love 3 times in an hour. The weird thing is just before the 3rd instance of that song came on, their voice guy game on and said "If the station your listening to keeps playing the same songs over and over again it's time to switch...". I took their advice and haven't been a regular listener since then. Let's see I think that was back in 1989, wow going on 20 years now.

Listen to "Secrets" tonight and you'll change that prediction to a 90.

WCRS will be receiving Community Shares of Mid Ohio's media award at its second annual awards ceremony on Wednesday, August 12th at the Statehouse Atrium from 4 to 6 pm.
 
Dude, I know you love what you do but excepty for super-geeks who have 10000 45s and another 8000 albums in their basement, there is no way an all unknown ad unfamiliar songs format is ever going to work commercially. I know it's nice to think that thousands of people will think "wow, I've never heard that. I hope this station plays unknown songs all day". It's never been known to work on a mass appeal basis.
 
You're not even going to check the show out, are you? Well, I just realized why you're gr8oldies and not greatoldies -- because there's only 8 that you enjoy listening to.;D

Your WNKO-FM ("Classic Hits KOOL 101.7") just fell off the quarterly table for the first time in a long time and joins all of the other goose-eggers that are out there (TDA, YTS, RFD, VKO-A, VKO-F, and, alas, KKJ), so things are going pretty good. If we can just continue to get another one or two stations to likewise fall off the ledge every three months, then eventually it's going to be quite a pile of stinkin' bodies that we got down there at the bottom of the canyon.

So yeah, I feel fine, I say let commercial radio continue to do nothing except go with its tried-and-true, time-proven format strategies, and I'll just sit back and smile and watch as even the ones that are Arbitron survivors go financially down the toilet instead. Makes no difference to me how they fail, as long as they fail.
 
jakej: It's great you're passionate. Now if you can take the concept to the next level and get it widely accepted, then you can claim success. But until then, you're simply passionate.
 
Nah, more like a thousand. I grew up with the hits, not deep, deep albun cuts that nobody listened to. But good luck, sorry i don't live close enough to catch your show. How are you supposed to sing along to music you've never heard, and likely won't hear again? You're going to et a roomful of people dancing to the 12th cut of some album that sold 50 copies?

No...just the truth. Sorry to see some people can't handle it.

Don't argue with him. I can tell you from experience. He never will learn. Unless he ever gets a job at a real radio station, tries his programming approach, watches it bomb and get fired in about 6 months time.

Er...but that's probably won't convince him, either. He'll blame management for not being willing to listen.
