Okay, I guess I'll play the game...., but I gotta clarify I haven't been in CR for a few months.
Cedar Rapids, IA
Best Overall Station = KZIA - Z102.9 - (conversational announcers(full-timers)(there is some really bad PT on Z), local liners, well defined interactive night programing) -BUt don't get a fat head, you could still improve many things!
Best Overall Jock - Katheryn Fox - WMT-FM Why not? She's held her own for years, and has some very loyal listeners...
Best Overall Production - not sure...
Best Morning Show - Schulte and Swann -(because there is no good young talent...only matter of time before good young talent takes them...)
Best Marketing -- Again Z102.9 --- do anyother stations put any money into real marketing at all?
Best Promotion- Not sure what the "Best is" but the Great Eastern Iowa Tractorcade probably puts out the most net profit.
Biggest story - no opinion
Underrated Station of the Year- KFMW -- solid jocks/music stack...and doing well considering it's in the middle of conservative country
Underrated Station of the Year - no clue...
"" Personality - ummm..... no clue again....
