You're joking right? They just signed the top rated morning talent in Seattle radio over the past decade. How is that rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic?

Credit when credit is due, iHeart made some very wise moves in helping to build back up 106.1. While there are things that could still be done better over there, KJR-FM, KZOK, KJAQ, and KBKS are pretty strong assets in their portfolio now.
Now official: “Hits 106.1.”

There's definitely some of that, though Zan is local. Alabama and English Evan are held over from the previous morning show. As for the station overall, the only reason it will do better is the ew morning show. After they're off the air, I only expect a few tenths of a point increase if that.
Sometimes the increase in morning drive is all a station needs. Most of the spots are there anyway. They don't sell the 6A to midnight numbers.
Well, to be fair, Alabama actually grew up in the South (has the accent and everything), English Evan actually grew up across the pond, and Raph is just shorthand for Raphael. All I know about Zann is her work in Dallas.
