The signal is great. The lack of competition is the real problem.
David Lee Roth is not going to intimidate any of the morning shows -
they are the ONLY people who appreciate Lee Roth. Because they can taste the blood in the water (not just smell it), and many stations - including RKO, are going to pick up better numbers by default.
The bad news about DLR isn't limited to this board. Tried and true Van Halen fans appreciate Dave on the air - and in conversation with them - I'm hearing they don't think he's going to appeal to the broader audience that Stern did.
And how much of Diamond Dave can even hardcore VH fans take day in and day
out?
Which means RKO's morning show (and look at the unflattering comments regarding it on this board) doesn't have to worry - they could actually pick up numbers from the Stern fans who don't shell out the money for Sirius.
Nope. The real WRKO problem is lack of competition. Love or hate RKO,
competition is healthy - and without it, there's a vacuum and the product(s)
across the board we are stuck with from just about every broadcaster in this city.

I was jokin' mate.
RKO's problem is that they seem to think that any overt display of personality or verve is somehow sales dept. poison--how else to explain the neutered content?
Howie Carr is their bread and butter and instead of making the station in his image, they run away from his brand of snark. This I don't get.
Community-based programming is cool. But imagining the community as chardonnay-sipping connoisseur oenophiles that munch expensive brie and toddle to Symphony Hall for the classics, that's nonsense.
