Heard today that Rod Warner and Chuck Taylor were let go from the river. Hate to hear that as both were really good guys. Best of luck to each of you.

You'd think River's demographics would click with advertisers. Is the Hartford market that depressed that there just isn't any more ad money out there, or are advertisers steering clear of radio in general as an outdated medium, the way they are with newspapers?
Well the website says The Rive 105.9 FM on the top header. I doubt a format change would happen. Or who knows with Clear Channel.
But isn't 105.9 doing well in the ratings right now?Why bother move the Yankees to FM when WCBS 880 can be picked up just fine. And talk format on FM in Hartford is not needed.

WCBS is static filled up here. And talk on FM is a done deal in Hartford. As soon as Clear Channel get the approval to move WPKX 97.9's tower from Massachusetts to downtown Hartford 97.9 will become RUSH RADIO and CC will yank Rush, Hannity, and Coast to Coast from 1080 and Glenn Beck from 1360.
I didn't think it was a sure done deal but if it is I doubt WTIC 1080 will lose out. As they are the home of UCONN sports and Red Sox baseball along with news updates. Would 1080 lose?
