SERIOUS props to Q102/Chio!

Chio & crew capitalized on the T.O. story better than any other station in town; showed up at T.O.'s house this morning with a moving truck. TV and paper coverage, can't ask for much more.

As easy as it is to rag on them at times, this was quite the coup.

I saw that this Am while drinking my coffee, reading the Inqui and listening to P&S (tv was on mute)...it was a Stern best-of this morning...so, while Preston and Casey are debating if TO should be run out of town there was a couple of Q102 street crew kids not looking all too enthusiastic sitting on the bumper of a U-haul with a Q banner and a "TO must Go" sign. I saw it on WPVI and NBC10.

Not the best look for the Q102 promotions team, but none the less they did get the exposure they were looking for...I guess it's all about quantity rather than quality regarding the street war going on between Tired 96.5 and Q.

Now, if TO came out of the house to kick Diego's ass that would have been something.

I stated in another post that I feel that the whole T.O. situation is a major turn off and I was tired of it, however, I would watch your scenario each and every time it was repeated, and never get sick of that.

To the "know it all" that earlier posted that Chio was a "has-been, this is a perfect example of how you should just read these boards rather than post. Chio is a seasoned pro and anything but a hasbeen. In fact it's this experience that is inportant when it comes time to know how to hit a hot topic and get the most out of it. The Q crew took a national and VERY local story and got involved and made it their own. Where were the other local shows? They were discussing it while Chio's morning show got in the middle of it. If that's what being a "hasbeen" means, then I suggest the rest of the local shows should strive for that label as well.

Hold still Super J. I would think that one could sing the praises of Chio relative to content, or compelling radio, or even consistency of ratings, but not if a street crew shows up in a U-haul looking pretty crappy (if you ask me). Don't get it twisted, whomever came up with the idea should get the props, not the guy that hosts the morning show. Now, if he came up with the idea, great, but I think if someone is calling Chio a "has been" it would be relative to on-air content.
 
Would you get off his jock already? I have stated my opinion and you have stated yours. I still say he's a has-been regardless of your opinion and regardless the T.O. bit. We're all entitled to our opinions. Calling people names because you disagree with their opinion is childish. This is especially true in your case, with pearls of wisdom like "inportant" coming off your keyboard:

> "...this is a perfect example of how you should just read these boards rather than post."
LOL. Complete nonsense.
