Entercom Rocks Alternative

S

Saladressing

(stating the obvious): Entercom is devoted to the alt. format.

They own the best group of Alternative Rock stations, and have for many years

94/7 Portland
107.7 The End Seattle
96.5 The Buzz Kansas City
KWOD Sacramento
and now the new Sound / Cincinnati

Each programmed uniquely for its individual market and each great in its own way. Not programmed by a computer - there is heart & soul in these stations. I mean I don't think you're gonna hear Kraftwerk's "The Model" -- that KNRK-Portland played today-- on too many stations around the country.

This is a company that believes in the format and they need to be commended for it.

Yes they should. I sincerely wish they'd acquire a station or some stations here in Savannah and challenge WFXH, who report as Modern Rock but love spinning Disturbed, Korn and Godsmack, with some songs by AC/DC, Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix thrown in every other hour or two ad nauseum. Go check their playlist - it's truly appalling. It'd be great to see a true modern rock station here and Entercom seems to be the only company who understands how to market and operate one.
 
Don't forget that Entercom now owns 92.9 WMFS in Memphis. I wouldn't be suprised to see them make some changes there soon too. Technically, they also own WZNE/Rochester, NY but they may divest it soon.
