Huh?

 

[raccoonradio]

I think he means that things are tough at WRKO/Entercom which is relying on PSAs by Jada Pinket Smith
(I forget what for), Oily Joe (Citizen's Energy, with that syrupy music), etc.
"Please stop smoking" was the little girl who lost her dad to cancer ("And now he's dead", a popular
sound cut on Howie's show). So...just make it a swap meet, might as well. I think that's what he means.

I believe the "Joe for oil" spots ARE commercials, as well as the ones recruiting for the military. WRKO and WTKKK are running other "get-rich-by-working-at-home" spots, but not the Andy Willoughby ("Next Stop, Willoughby) commercials. WTKKK has also been running the "Infernal Star Register" spots with Rocky Liebfraumilch...why he isn't in jail eludes me.

Historically, the day after Christmas the commercial logs are scant.....and that usually lasts into the few first weeks of January.

I notice this everywhere...on TV...and talkradio.....where there are places for commercials that need to be filled....so they are filled with PSA's.

This is not an Entercom thing...it's part of the nature of radio and advertising that the cycle after Christmas is light.

Music stations just play more music when there are less commercials...but talkradio and TV have stopsets that need to be filled. (Especially syndicated radio shows, etc.)

No, but you do have to be a member of the "I have a clue what I'm talking about" club. So sorry they rejected your membership application. Belonging to the "name calling is a proper substitute for intelligent discussion" club doesn't qualify.

...Tubby Frat Boy Jimmy Rushton gets kicked upstairs to Vice President of Sales by Hatchet-Face and The Gnome,..

Tubby? I know Jim, and I hardly think "tubby" is an appropriate nickname. Vacuous name-calling aside, sales managers don't get promoted to VP unless they perform...read: bring in the bucks. I'd also like to know how a program director has anything to do with the promotion of a sales manager. Never been the case at any of the radio stations I've worked for.

.. for his great catch of PSA's flooding HarKayOh's ..."Peanut Whistle" (LOOVE IT) signal!....Jada Pinket Smith,....Air Force Reserve...Oily Joe K...Kimbery Elise and her Human Pappilloma Virus.....Take A Bow!......OH!......... and don't leave out....."It stinks in here!".....and...."Please stop smoking!".......What's to come "How in the World are ya Anyway"....Just turn the transmitter over to an over the air Swap Meet!.....Pax Vobiscum!......See Ya! :

As has already been pointed out to you: Sales in the first quarter of a new year traditionally start off slowly, because advertisers have spent tons of money on holiday season ads. It's not a problem for WRKO that isn't an identical problem for every radio and TV station. Further, "Oily Joe K" pays cash US money for his commercials. They're not PSAs.

I get the impression that Father Coughlin is a very funny guy. I just don't understand anything he posts. Judging by some of the replies, I'm not alone. I think the good Father is trying too hard.

 

[WMC2006]

. I think the good Father is trying too hard.

Or not at all. ???

im not a big listener to wrko. because, hey, it just doesnt appeal to me.

i understand they are having a tough time.

last night i listened to the bill cunningham show. i was amazed at the number of psas and finneran and carr promos that were run. very few commercials.

i know the entercom defenders will attribute this to be a sunday night. but maybe they should put down the kool aid and wake up. wrko is struggling.

if you cross your fingers and toes, maybe come april some of the red sox listeners will forget to change the channel on their radio after the game and wake up to tom finneran!

Sunday nights has the least amount of people listening.
No one in their right mind would be placing paid ads during this time period.
