Plea to Philadelphia Radio People

R

RockIntern

Guest
I know many people in all forms of radio management read this board. My plea to you is to bring my suggestion to the big whigs on this sensitive issue. Someone should flip one of Philly's many struggeling stations to Active Rock 24/7/365, it should be Commercial free all summer until Labor Day. After Labor Day, jocks and information could be added with little talk, any talk should be about the bands being played, not sex, downgrade of females, sports and violence, that Active Rockers are known for embracing. Now is the time to put this in motion. This will bury the 1 1/2 poor excuses for any true Rock product on the dial now, it may also wake them up, creating a true Rock Radio War, in which case the listener will be the winner.

;D I just had to chuckle on this one. I usually don't fault people for spelling, but by big "whigs" did you mean Daniel Webster and Henry Clay? If so you're about 150 years too late on that one.
 
If you ignore what he's saying and concentrate on the way he says it (and spells it!), rockintern is good for a lot of laughs. Someone should really explain the joke to him, because I'm sure he has no idea what a 'whig' is!
 
Here's the three lowest rated FM radio stations in Philadelphia.Which would YOU flip?(in order: lowest rated at the top)WYSPWPHIWSNI
 
Since YSP has the knowledge and trackrecord, since 1995, in the Active format, (I think they were one of the pioneer stations), I would say YSP. But I doubt they would throw in the towel so early in the game, plus they would never unload Meril or the Eagles. I would bet the house on SNI, CC has no rock presence in the Philly market, which is ripe for the picking.
 
If 'ysp went all rock, it wouldn't really be like they're flipping. It would be like they finally settled on something, eh? :-\
