Edge Mistake

Ok, its been about a month since Edge yanked the ritual in favor of Adam. They really should have put the ritual in pm drive. There really isn't anything interesting going on in pm drive. They could really clean up in the ratings I believe. Also, I believe they really need to look at their playlist and take a listen to some stations in L.A. like KROQ and KYSR.
 
They cut expenses. Moving Ritual doesn't cut. And, they have to cut because the marketplace has proven they can't compete.

But you have to think there is a huge opportunity for Alternative/New Rock. The edge just can't seem get there.
 
It got better numbers when marc ran it and when they had competition when kzon was playing alt rock now they have lower numbers and no competition in the alt rock format. WTF
 
Yes exactly you would think with no competition they would be doing better than when they had competition from the zone but no dice. I think they need to take a good hard look at their playlist. I truly believe if they skewed a little older as another post alluded to it would do very well. There is so much great music from the eighties and nineties that are not played on radio at all. I do know they needed to cut costs but if a pm drive show could bring you more revenue, wouldnt it be a wise idea to not cut them from the payroll?
 
Any word on if Chuck has found new digs yet? I'm still not used to not hearing him every morning. I'm not a sports radio person, but I would probably listen to him still if he went back to sports.

Also, when will we be seeing some ratings for Adam's show? Would kinda like to see Riviera eat crow for slowly hacking away at was my favorite station when it was independent.
 
credit Riviera for keeping it on life support...the station is as beefy as a Linda McCartney frozen dinner...but as long as Robin Nash is there, there's still a chance... I agree Fee, there's a huge opportunity out there for someone......and AZenergy, you have a point...they need to skew older...Is Nancy Stevens still in programming?
