This is criminal.. one hour of Shark on Sports? Pushed to 6PM? A crime.

I agree - I am dissapointed. Shark on Sports was good as I was usually in the car between 5:00 and 6:00... This must be a cost-cutting move. It is highly unlikely I will be listening to a Dan Patrick Show on a six hour delay during that 5:00 hour in the afternoon.

SERIOUSLY.... who wants to hear sports news (or any kind of news) 6 hours after the fact. Especially in today's world of on-demand everything...

This is a horrible decision by TDA. They should of put DP on live in the 9-12 slot and kept Shark on for the 4-6 shift. Maybe even move Sharks show to morning drive to compete with Mike and Mike. I know I would like to hear a local voice in the mornings other than only OSU updates. Just my opinion. I know I have a hard time picking up the station in my home in the southern part of the city, especially at night, so I probably won't be able to listen to Shark, which is very unfortuanate.

Only an hour for Shark? Something doesn't add up there. This isn't college radio. Who get's an hour long shift? I wonder if they are trying to run him out. I don't think it's a cost cutting thing because it's not like he's getting paid by the hour. And if they reworked a contract, well it would be hard to imagine that anyone would accept an hour long shift. I'm not sure what it cost to run these programs in comparison to salaries, but could this be a lead up to a sale?? I mean they did just dump the morning show on 99.7 for a syndicated show.

If they're gonna give Shark just one hour, they might as well have him doing live break-ins during Mancow, and run Savage live starting at 6.

 

[Browns17]

Great just what I wasnted to hear more bad news. I listen to Shark for the full 2 hours while at the gym. No way I will listen to a delayed DP show. If Shark is moved to 6 I will never hear the show, just typically do not listen to the radio during those hours. Another sad day for C-Bus radio.

This stinks. Who is making these horrible decisions at that company? Is it the same people who have been making bad decisions over there for the past few years or have they brought someone new in? If not, they should. Shark on Sports was the best part of my day. Now I get DP delayed? Is any show on that station live? Other than Shark I mean. This is really disappointing. Obviously I am not alone in my opinion, but I am sure no matter how many negative letters they get, it won't change anything. Will anyone actually listen to any of these other shows they are putting on?

As Shark would say, "This is tarrible tarrible tarrible!"

 

[V.Riley]

Unless this is prep work for something they are about to do at one of the other two stations they have, then maybe they really ought to rethink this. Of course the listeners seldom has a say when it comes to decisions being made at radio stations. Sure would be nice to know what their thought process is in doing this. There must be a logical reason, or financial reason for it. ???

WTDA puts on Phil Hendrie on? Guess this is the closest thing to progressive talk. (Note KTLK 1150 progressive talk carries his show.) What's the point to carry two inflammatory bomb throwers like Mancow and Savage? Shark on sports an hour at 6pm? Is it me or they want to tie WYTS in the ratings?

This is just proof that C-Bus radio is dying. This is why I own a high power shortwave radio to pick up Alex Jones and The Power Hour, an HD100 receiver with a amplified AM LOOP antenna to pick up WDTW Detroit Progressive Talk station and WWRL 1600 AM New York Progressive Talk Stations on selected nights. I'm glad that I recently purchase a WI-FI internet radio receiver to pick up out of market radio stations that have a web stream. Heck I rather listen to Police and Fire chatter on my scanner.

I'm this close to subscribe to XM and purchasing the Pioneer Inno XM receiver. Radio is dying in C-Bus. The only thing I left to listen to is WCLT FM HD feeds and WCRS LPFM on OTA radio.

Is it me or Bob and Tom sounds distorted on 99.7? Is the national syndicated feed of The Bob and Tom Show broadcast in stereo?
