Brad and Britt Show Debuts in Clt on WBT

T

tylerSC

They are back in afternoon drive on 11.10AM and 99.3FM, offering a more entertaining choice in the afternoons. Glad they are back, and offering more than one point of view. Entertaining show, hope it does well.
 
apparently advertisers haven't liked them in their last two stops (FM/AM).
for the NC market, they were/are kinda/sorta liberal in their political positions,
and their two-year fight against Amendment One just killed them in revenue.
now, they have to "sell" an Even More conservative SC too?
 
Thanks Mr. Turkey....but you are wrong on every one of your assertions. You are confusing your personal likes/dislikes with their politics, which is not the largest part of their show. Brad and Britt had plenty of live endorsements throughout the years... Many advertisers stuck with them for a long time because they moved the product. Since the debut of Rush Radio, their primary talk competitor in both markets, they knocked out Bill Flynn and that Dmitri guy from KDKA.... In less than 2 years. That Curtis blew it from a management/sales level was hardly their fault. But they were thought of highly enough that when WZTK was blown up, Brad and Britt were retained and moved over to 850/600. WBT had painted itself into a corner over the years, becoming more and more during that 3-6 slot a right-wing Hate Obamafest which followed the one from noon to 3. Mediocre ratings and non-advertiser friendly = change in direction.
 
I hI have followed them fromWZTK to 850/600 and now I have followed them to 1110 I love the show it is something different to listen to.
WBT currently has two of my favorite shows with Keith Larson and now Brad and Britt.
BTW I live in Charleston SC streaming online is a wonderful thing!
 
ActiveRadio and Turkey are both full of it. If you have a shard of intelligence, you'll like Brad & Britt. Excellent show prep and interesting discussion. You guys don't know what you're talking about. You're probably competitors trying to knock them down. They're not liberal, they're pretty middle of the road. It's about time Charlotte had something other than the right wing wackos. The public is about done with that crap.
 
AND, these guys get results for clients and that's worth its weight in gold! Advertisers really stuck with them and it was obvious when you heard them over and over on their show.
 
It Is A Curtis Media Lost! Why Not Sell 101.1 FM?
 
While you might be right about some crap stations, Don Curtis has made millions buying and selling stations over the years. He sure built a fortune from a little property in Laurenburg and an FM frequency he bought from Duke University.
 
I agree, and I have defended Don Curtis for many years on that very premise. However lately he seems to have totally lost touch with the business.
