Election Night

One of the great things about medium/smaller markets is the hometown feel they place on special community events such as election nights. It’s not uncommon for a station in those smaller markets to read every race, every issue. Right down to dog catcher and liquor sales at a gas station.

Apparently those days are over at WHBC.

It’s a shame that Nextmedia has stripped WHBC-AM of its heritage as the voice of Stark County.
Stark county results were delayed and rather than staying on the air, they signed off and went into syndicated programming.

Meanwhile I was able to hear Stark County results on WCER! and WHLO.

I didn’t seem to mind I was able to pickup WCER well after sunset where I live. I got the info I was looking for so no biggie. They did a pretty decent job.

WCER Covered Stark

WHLO covered Summit, Stark and Portage.

WAKR Covered Summit, Medina, Portage.

WHBC-AM covered where the news anchor and co-host ate dinner.

You stay classy, Ron Ponder.

Feel free to register a complaint with the GM or PD. I'm sure you'll get lots of feedback. ::)

You don't suppose that the skeleton crew that now resides at HBC has anything to do with any perceived shortcomings, do you?
 
FYI-->

John Baylor wears a Black Leather Jacket that CLEARLY hasn't been popular since '93.....

Also.....insiders report he has a keen groupie-like affection for Blessed-Union-of-Souls.

Which shouldn't be held against him, but often is.

"Hey Leonardo" rocks. No one can deny that.
