THE NEW Star 94: Not paying attention

[radiofan2023]

Same with billboards-- one time, I kept seeing Wedding Festivals ads one month, and they were never changed, even though the event had long taken place several months back

Sounds like those ads were divorced from reality!

Doesn't Craig Ashwood have an off-air job with Cox Media? Of course, that was a while back and before Apollo.

He used to pop up on this board occasionally.

He does not. He's about as free-agent as it gets.

Emily Boldon is the new PD and just arrived in the building. She will get things turned around. Can't wait to check out the station in a couple of months. Em will have this station on point and sounding great.

The thing about non electronic billboards is until there is a new client or existing client changes copy the old ad stays up there till the elements fade the old as away.

I yeeted the liners from the system as soon as I heard it because the jocks hadnt been on the air in months after the network let them go

What does yeet mean? I am part of a group of people who ridicule the Gil Thorp comic strip and "Yeet" is a favorite comment, ever since it was used by a character.

Your station wasn't the only one. I heard one in Portland ME doing the same thing. All the "America's Best Music" DJs had been laid off. But the station was still playing promos saying "Hi, I'm John Smith. I play America's Best Music on WXXX every weekday afternoon!"

Since Carl Hampton was doing the show, those were REALLY outdated.

to get rid of with some vim and vigor... usually involves physically throwing something but can involve just getting rid of something in any manner
