Whos the worst in Memphis Radio?

What station do you think is the worst in this city?

I'd Say 94.1
 
I'm not going to get into "worsts." That's not constructive.

But, it's hard to call 94.1 "worst." The numbers are certainly improved over its predecessor. And, it does have Karen Perrin. And, we all love Karen.

constructive? who are you? lol

i changed my mind its def. KIM 989
 
There is worse out there than 94.1, that's for certain.
I'm also going to let this one slide other than to say that.
And, yes...94.1 is FAR better than it's last couple of incarnations.

Not everyone
 
How can anything be worse than WMQM and WLRM? They're in a two way tie for the bottom of the barrel.

Very funny indeed anotherguy. :D

They're AMs, so to most people, they don't even exist!

Well said firepoint 525. ;)

To add my two cents, so to this person, the entire radio doesn't even exist! It's too boring, staled and so predictable. That's why I keep a stack of CD's handy and listen to them. I'm so ticked off at the same old bland talk and musical presentations, that the radio has to offer. I for one am disgusted and don't see a need to listen to it any longer.

R.D.P. <><
 
I think the 94.1 station is a breath of fresh air, quite frankly. Conlee and Karen are at least interesting. Drake and Zeke are good too. I just moved back to Memphis not long ago and like that station. 100 and Kim are booooring. Actually the worst radio I think is the morning show on 600...and the whole station is nothing but a bunch of bitching, angry people who have nothing positive or contstructive to say about anything.
 
94.1 is great! rounding out the butt in West TN is SL-100 in Dyersburg.
 
OK, In your opinions KQK is the worst, but why? I happen to like the station. Is it the music? Format execution? What? I’m curious.
 
KQKs not bad. Really. But The Buzz was kickin! And the ratings were extremely competitive.

Another scatter-brained decision.
 
The problem with The Buzz was that the format was almost identical to FM100. After the Entercom buyout of the CBS/Infinity stations, one of them had to go.
 
Excellent question. Memphis radio is the answer to the question. Iphone, Ipod, MP3, etc is better than any radio station with whomever on the air.

Pandora is great, because it allows you to choose your genre and program the artists, not a program director on any given station in Memphis.

What is radio anyway? Entertainment and Information...dispensed by an air talent.

Entertainment? Iphone or Ipod or MP3...playing the music you want to hear, programmed by you.
Information? Iphone or Ipod or the internet, on the Iphone. After all, how much information do you really get for a local radio station anyway.

It's said to say, because I was in the radio industry for a long time and realized that our purpose had no relevancy anymore...inform and entertain through the community airwaves. It used to be fun, now it's a job of survival until the next round of layoffs to satisfy creditors and Wall Street.

I wonder how it felt to be the last of the dinosaurs roaming the earth before the big big.

They got rid of the wrong one.
