The BIGGER question. Will Beatstock still go on without 'KTU sponsoring it should the station flip format on July 31st??

With Whoopi talking in public and on station promos about the excitement of joining what she calls the "premiere dance station in the country" why would they change formats?

The bottom line remains fairly strong for KTU... advertisers don't buy the 12+ numbers, and where they do buy, KTU is still quite strong and bills well. It's a business and with Clear Channel already with Lite, I don't see a change to Adult Contemporary for KTU.

Hardcore dance fans might not like the Rhythmic Variety (Disco to Now) format that KTU is pretty much spinning but I think it will be around awhile.

And you may be right Justin.

I'm just preparing IF 'KTU makes a change. With a lot of the personalities either being let go or moving on, I cannot help in the back of my mind that something bigger may go on besides Whoopi and Cubby in the morning.
