Tigger`s target demo`s are 18-34 and 18-49 as are PGC`s target demo`s where did you see these numbers i would love to see them. All we continue to see is 12plus,6 plus, and some 25-54 numbers unless you are a GM or PD the 18-34 and 18-49 numbers are under federal lock up. And remember i continue to see different PD`s all over the country state that CUME is the driver of PPM more so than AQH which makes a station like PGC in 12th place but the station continues to have a Top 4 CUME in the 12 plus and 6 plus numbers. Tigger`s CUME numbers in morning drive are the key.quietboy said:

Basically, Tigger works for WPGC if they are to stay local in the morning. He just needs a female cohost that holds her own and relates to the educated females of the market. WPGC should not emulates its Orlando sister station, WJHM (102 Jamz), by syndicating and wind up with a low cume and 12+. Now they are chasing after their clearly inferior Cox Radio-owned competition (Power 95.3) like a dog chases its tail. CBS unlike Cox and practically all other large radio companies, actually invests in its urban-oriented stations and should never follow their lead in any way shape or form. WPGC is still overall the better programmed station than practically all the other stations in the DC market that plays any form of crossover, R&B, hip-hop, and/or soul music. It also has a wider range of listeners.

Well, I said that a crossover-chrurban would spin this song, so WPGC being the first isn't surprising to me at all. They are reclaiming their old status as the "crossover-urban" station in the DMV.
Also I see they spun Britney Spears as well, so it's official they are going for everybody in the market that plays CHR to Urban.

I still doubt a flip to Top 40/CHR is coming to WPGC. Their cume is too damn high for them to flip from their current musical composition and ability to pull urban and crossover listeners. It'll drop going completely pop. The likely reason the dismissal is they felt that Big Tigger wasn't going to work in the long run. CBS is doing a lot with this station since Jason Kidd has been appointed.
I hope it isn't true...but checking a cached version of the website that has Tigger & then doing a Google search & clicking on the Tigger/WPGC links: he's gone! The "Tigger" link that was in the upper left corner (next to "Home") is gone.
I guess one might think...similarly owned station (CBS Radio) to the north with a heavily rhythmic CHR format with a morning host that just added a syndicated show on WPGC...and whose celebrity/singer wife just gave birth to twins? Could it be the rollout of syndication of "Rollin' With Nick Cannon" (heard on WXRK 92.3 Now NYC) in the morning? Pure speculation on my part...again, I hope not.

How does Jason Kidd get to find the time to work in radio and play basketball? lol
WJHM having Rickey Smiley strikes me as odd considering the management at CBS Radio Orlando refuses to create a local morning show following the dumping of Steve Harvey. I just don't see CBS Radio Washington folding to Radio One on that front with WPGC especially with them battling Russ Parr in the mornings. They likely will find something local, but who is the real question.
Mike said:
Wow, if WPGC was to put Rickey on and he was to beat Russ Parr at WKYS that'd be a slap in the face to Radio One. BTW, I doubt it and Rickley Smiley's flagship station in now HOT 107.9 ATL.
I also doubt that WPGC will put Smiley or Cannon in mornings.
Ricky Smiley airs in Baltimore on WERQ i live in the region there is way to much market OVER LAP. WPGC has a ton of Baltimore listners they will not go the Smiley route and WERQ comes in strong signal wise in the D.C. area. If you listen closely to the promos that are running this weekend on WPGC they state the following "CBS Radio management has set the Big Tigger Morning Show "Free" what a strange way to word that statement. Do not be surprised if this is another stunt remember a few months ago when "Free" sat in for him get it "Free" she will either take over the slot herself or be doing morning drive with him. We will see monday.

Ok yeah it's pretty much Free. WPGC did the same thing when Tigger was coming, saying that something "BIG!" is coming to mornings on WPGC.
Also, what happens to Tigger's countdown show?
donta1974 said:
Yeah I agree Free may be jumping on baord. Especially if they're still mentioning "Big Tigger Morning Show" in the promos. He's still there.
