God that's a strong opinion on something that is being speculated right now.

Bayou was probably moved because as it has been said, 105.3 is not back up to par and Walton and Johnson are probably still collecting big checks from entercon , if the station is on or not. With no syndicated programming and on par with each other ratings, WTKL's frequency was the logical choice for Bayou. Sorry but that's economics.

If the rumor is true about Kool flipping remains to be seen. It's still a top half station and has been courting the demo even though it may not be as good as it was say 10 years ago by some's opinion. But at the same time companies are flipping oldies stations to a Jack style format everyday.

So on Kool, It remains to be seen, But if Kool disappears, you will probably see another station try the oldies format in town IMO (even if it's WTIX-Fm trying to gain new listners)

Hey I know I have strong opinions (as some of you may have noticed) but heres the thing I don't know how long it will be before every single New Orleans radio and TV station will be fully up and running. I know some of you want Kool back, but who knows you may end up with Jack, with the way things are going with oldies stations these days. I'm sure that once all of the towers are fully operating again, things will start falling into place. In an earlier post someone wrote about how radio is the last thing on peoples minds right now, I agree I mean look at the news, some natives of the city are never moving back because of the traumatic experiance they had to go thruogh and I for one can't blame them "that is not meant to be a knock at the city of New Orleans", if they don't want to move back to New Orleans than thats up to them. As far as radio goes, I'm no expert on damaged facilities but I'm guessing it will be a year or so before radio and tv in the big easy is 100 percent functional. The first poster aughto be ashemed because you call entercom heartless bastards, hey some of those "heartless bastards" may have lost loved ones and all they are trying to do is return some degree of normalilty to the New Orleans airwaves.
