Capital Times: Jim Rome Show Moving To WTLX 100.5 FM

So, whatever happened there with Fox Sports Radio? Did WTLX end up hanging on to them after WXXM decided not to flip to them?

The WTLX relationship with FSR is still intact (including top-of-hour reports and JT "The Brick" on late nights). They still identify themselves as "Fox Sports Radio 100.5" and their old logo is still on their website, although they do occasionally run promos with "Madison's Sports Radio 100.5" (without any FSR references). I imagine the latter is a side effect of the plans they had if the WXXM flip had occurred. (See this link for logo)

Rome to WTLX is an obvious side effect of WXXM's reversal. CC could have done an easy alternative and leave Rome on WTSO; however, WTSO was already running promos for Colin Cowherd's and Dan Patrick's ESPN shows being aired live and in their entirety, so it would've been embarrasing for CC Madison if that wasn't the case.
