Did CBS eliminate the wrong station in 2009?

Essentially, Greater Media has turned WBOS into an automated version of what WBCN was, and are getting much better ratings with it. Go figure.

Should CBS Radio have kept WBCN and eliminated WODS instead in 2009 given that WODS' Oldies format targets an older demographic verses WBCN which targeted a younger audience? Would the Sports Hub have competed for the same listeners as WBCN? Could this have been considered by CBS management in '09?

Nope. From what I've read, the legend needed to go because the ad revenue wasn't anything to write about. As for WODS, I was shocked they blew it up, but times change. I guess the advertisers give the finger to older demographics (because they have a problem with people saving money; yes, I'm saying this sarcastically ;D) and charge for the younger crowd like myself (which gets really ridiculous after a while).
