The Harbor in the future

Maybe it's all birdfeed national news. Hartford's 910 was run on-the-ultra-cheap for a while running CNN audio. It kept the transmitter warm and, I suppose, brought in some local advertising.

Wild idea, would CBS do a simulcast of WBZ-AM during drive time and play music during mid-day and evenings when BZ-AM does talk on either

Not as wild as you might think at first glance. WKXW Trenton (NJ 101.5) does N/T weekdays with music nights and weekends.
A simulcast with WBZ from, say, 5a-7p weekdays and some kind of music (except Urban AC ;D ;D) the rest of the time might do well and cost very little. I wonder if WBZA is available?
 
Perhaps America's Radio News Network with local cut-ins or didn't I Heart Radio just launch a Boston all news online station? Either way, I could see them being Boston's 1st all news FM.

Perhaps bring back classic WODS during the music shifts, if looking at the NJ101.5 model? They could still do news at the top of the hour.
