A couple of days ago there was a couple of paragraphs in the Tennessean's business section about Big D and Bubba's show going to syndication. The story went on to say that Big D and Bubba did the Morning show at WSIX-FM. Am I missing something or was this story incorrect? Last time I checked House was still the king at 98.

The Tennessean is clueless.
Always has been. Always will be.
(guess I won't be doing their spots anytime soon)

BD&B are syndicated mornings thru PREMIERE...I don't know
how many stations, but it' significant.<P ID="signature">______________
but wait...there's more!</P>
 
I'm not sure how they hand out the assignments to write about radio at the Tennessean, but they always manage to find someone who seems to know nothing about Nashville radio. The story was actually corrected on the internet and now only mentions the syndicated show being on from 5-9AM, which is correct.

It is a total joke over there on Broadway. What a bunch of yahoos.
Funny how the The Tennessean can trash/fire Dave Ramsey for
getting his facts wrong, and yet they can't even get something
like another media's facts straight, but that's okay. Glass
houses and stones.....

Be glad you won't being lowering yourself to do their spots.

Then again, Brad's a "competitor," isn't him. Hmm. Smell a rat?
Maybe the real story is The Tennessean is behind the Venus. That
would make perfect sense. Two jokes for the price of one. How grim.

I don't think much of Dave Ramsey, but the Tennessean was wrong to have fired him. All he did was use a phone call to his show as a letter to make an illustration. Not that big a deal.

But you guys are right. They've never had a media writer who understood the broadcast media, especially radio. The only ones who have in my time in Nashville were Matt Pulle from the Scene and Greg Bailey from the Banner. The rest of 'em knew less about the broadcast media than your average consultant or first-quarter mass comm student.

You must be a broadcast news writer. Or an imaging god. EXCEPTIONALLY well-articulated. *shakes your hand*

NICE!

What a well-crafted reply: are you responding to anyone in particular?
I called The Tennessean "clueless", and I stick by that as far as media
coverage. It's good you have an opinion in there (I think) somewhere.
It would be helpful to know what it is. <P ID="signature">______________

Yeah, I am a broadcast news writer. Thanks for the kind words.
