Maybe someone forgot to refresh/rebuild the menu in whatever kind of digital cart-ready type of system they use.

You think that's bad....yesterday I heard:

"We Are Clapprood and Company,
We Are Dr. Laura,
We Are Rush Limbaugh,
We Are Howie Carr,
We Are Two Chicks Dishing,
We Are Jeff Katz,
We Are Boston's Talk Station, AM 680, WRKO!"

WRKO Response

I contacted WRKO, and said the spots were driving me crazy, and they said they were "working on it." THat was three weeks ago.

What's the worst? Probably that hippie speaking in the Lennon clip. "He was like ... uh ... a symbol of .... uh .... the 60's ...."
 
Re: WRKO Response

Agreed, and
it shouldn't take a lot of effort to delete an outdated promo, and it ought to be
a priority, especially during the thick of the fall ratings period, and a launch of a new morning format.
it ought to be driving management crazy, too.
Maybe they underestimate the intelligence of their audience, or maybe they have the " if they build it, they will come" attitude

As far as " Boston This Morning" maybe they have the " if they build it, they will come" attitude.
