Teen pop on variety hits?

[ticoSD]

One thing that's been noticeably missing on Jack FM here in Jackson has been teen pop music from artists like Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, etc. That's actually a good thing that I don't hear them on Jack. Do other Jacks/variety hits stations have a tendency of staying away from teen pop?<P ID="signature">______________

Most do. I have heard the occasional Britney song on Bob-FM Norfolk, and recently heard a rap-free mix of Usher's "Yeah!" while listening online to Charlie in Portland, OR. These seem to be stations that take the "variety" part a bit more seriously than most others.

I believe Jack to be a classic driven format, more than a New or almost new driven one. The "play what we want" idea is more "Play the classic hits, and the odd new tune we want"

I could be wrong though...
