WEST Ends Morning Show After 71 Years

[Tim the Impounder]

They're scheduled to flip to a mostly Spanish format on April 1st...No joke.

The station is actually in Easton, Pennsylvania and in the Lehigh Valley.

Still, it's very sad to see something like this end so abruptly. Then again, though, this is a much different era of radio these days. After all, fewer and fewer people are listening to the AM band. So few, in fact, that most people can count that number on one hand alone.

Where I live (Connecticut) I listen to 5 AM Stations.

610 for Dr. Joy
910 for their Reggaeton Shows
990 for their the unique Morning Show, Sally Jessy, and their interesting 1-3 Show
1080 for Clark Howard (CH is only on if they're not carrying The UCONN Huskies and Boston Redsox)
1410 for the NY Yankees

Otherwise I'm on the FM listening to Hip-Hop (93.7) and Oldies (102.9).

A 24 y/o M listening to Joy Browne & S.J.R.? Yikes... that says it all right there... abnormal listening patterns.
