Don't think of Jay Diamond as a morning man anymore than I think of Jay Severin as a morning man or the lates David Brudnoy or Jerry Williams. I think mid-day or evenings for him. The problem is that the conglomerates own all the major outlets in this city and there are no real locally owned radio stations with a signal you can hear that would hire a Jay Diamond and let him grow a local audience. We wouldn't have had a Jerry Williams, a David Brudnoy,an Avi Nelson,a Pat Whitley and many more who established themselves on locally owned radio stations before they made it to the bigger stations if they hadn't started on locally owned radio stations. The Richmond brothers [ WMEX ] may have been cheap SOB's but they were innovative SOB's which is more than you can say about the big guys who are just SOB's.
Conglomerates will eventually ruin terrestrial radio because they are never innovatibve and never cutting edge leaders and trend setters; they only follow establish trends and live off those trends like a parasite.
