Dedicated Eagle 98.1 Fans,

Baton Rouge’s number one radio station and multiple Louisiana Radio Station of the year winner, Eagle 98.1, will introduce to you a new live and LOCAL morning show on January 9th.

Our old Houston based morning show left us.

Guaranty Media, Baton Rouge’s only locally owned radio company, appreciates your loyalty and we look forward to entertaining you long into the future.

<speculation opinion>
Wondering if John will also feed up to Baton Rouge or if Condon will move to mornings (As he was mornings as Condon and Leblanc years ago) or one of the other Guaranty talent move over to Eagle for morning work?

Also with W&J abandoning two stations that helped them in the lean years, Are they shooting themselves? and BTW, they will now not be heard in major parts of the oil field that were big supporters of the group.

What's your opinion? BTW FB has a lot of people thinking the two stations took them off, W&J staying mum, the stations are publicly stating that W&J left them
 
WRNO and WJBO are already doing a disservice to their listeners by cutting out the last hour of Walton and Johnson in favor of Glen Beck. Stupid Move
