New York State Attorney General Elliott Spitzer, before his fall from grace, investigated the Entercom CHR in Buffalo. The PD was charged with receiving undisclosed benefits. The matter was settled. A fine levied. The PD moved on to program a CHR competitor in Canada, across the river from Buffalo. He later made a few horizontal moves, went into sales and now rehabilitated, programs Townsquare's Hot AC in Buffalo, which is challenging Entercom's Hot AC. The guy always had good ears and programming ability, now he has real life experience and a bit more humility.
The Nash morning show is at best, inept. Cumulus PDs in markets that air the show have cited a lack of direction and focus, as if the hosts throw stuff up against the wall to see what sticks. Coming out of Music City, they have little if any clue about what happens on the street in Market #1. A few months ago a caller was heard on the air, doing a produced bit about a llama. A llama! A few days later, a noteworthy Country artist that was booked cancelled, so rather than pay tribute to the artist by playing the guy's hit song(s), the morning show made up a parody interview. It was so lame that it wouldn't work in Newton or New Brunswick, let alone New York. It must have sounded more embarrassing in Nashville.
As to New Jersey; Although the state has more than 700 thousand acres of farmland, Hudson, Essex, Middlesex, Sommerset, Bergen and Monmouth counties have some of the most densely populated communities in the United States.
