WCBS Newsradio 88 Appreciation Site

Shawn O'Domski said:
Julius: please stop DEMANDING that people click on links that you provide. You did let us know of a useful website (and I, for one, appreciate it), there is no need for you to DEMAND that we visit it. You should visit the site yourself and provide your own commentary. Also, the site provides information on the demise of your favorite station, 1210 AM. Read it and let us know what does you think. This isn't the Philadelphia board. Folks on this board will not tolerate your silly demands and drivel. Most of the Philadelphia board puts up with you...people here will not.

He wasn't demanding that we should check the website. He was suggesting it. Please Shawn, lighten up.

thanks for backing me up Kevin. This WCBS-AM site is really great for long time WCBS 880 AM fans.

Yep, no problem. Shawn tends to get overly stressed about the smallest things.

But back to the topic, I surfed over to the site and briefly looked over it. Looks like an interesting site. I'll check it out in detail later.
 
Did the New WCBS AM-FM Promo actually air or was it made but never played over the air ? Was it made as a joke or was WCBS-AM considering going to Oldies on 880 back then ?

This site also has Cousin Brucie and Ron Lundy doing a lazy promo for WCBS-AM and WCBS-FM called "Musicradio 88" instead of "Newsradio 88".

It was made for yucks. Never aired, never meant to. Just horsing around. Kind of like the NBC "We're Proud!" promo that was re-cut, with all the singers, as "We're Loud!"

Except, of course, the "We're Loud" promo reportedly got a bunch of folks in deep trouble...

If I remember what I've read and heard elsewhere, it was produced as a gag for a Newsradio 880 party.

Pretty funny!
