My KJR-FM Rant... Why Can't They Get It Right?

Yes.

If a request comes in and can be made into a handsome phone bit, then the request will be played. Let me be clear, it is all about a call turned into a nice "phoner", and that supercedes any rotational issues. Bottom line, if a phoner is not compelling, either by the caller or the jock, then it will never see the light of day. Pretty basic radio 101 here.

The Seattle Radio-Info Board Answer Widget
Because all of the problem in Seattle radio have been solved over and over again by the experts on this board with irrefutable and proven methods, I thought it would be easy to provide an easy way for responses.

The way for KJR-FM to get it right is (check all that apply):
[ ] Hire Robin and Maynard
[ ] Make it sound exactly like what they do on Satellite Radio
[ ] No less than a 20,000 song active library, a one month rotation is too tight
[ ] Make it sound exactly like what they do on Australian and Canadian radio
[ ] Hire Pat Cashman
[ ] Put music back on the AM band
[ ] Do not play a song that any other radio station has played, that's bad
[ ] Hire Ricker
[ ] Rhythmic AC Music
[ ] Bring back Smooth Jazz
[ ] Hire Pat O'Day
[ ] Play the eighth cut on Jim Croce's last album
[ ] Play the ninth cut on Jim Croce's last album

What you need is CURRY! Add some Bollywood into the mix!
 
And I was only being facetious, thus the comment about guru's guarantee
"but I guarantee it didn't happen in markets 15 or less, including Seattle"
