WSNI 104.5 FM in Philly (AC) to add talk programming?

J

Jul

From today's Philadelphia Daily News:
As if there isn't enough mindless chatter already on the radio, PhillyTalk.com reports that Sunny 104.5 FM may flip its format to a female-focused talk station near the end of July (perhaps GYNO 104.5 "The Big Complainer").

More info: http://www.philly.com/mld/dailynews/14858285.htm and today's Philly Inquirer also picked up the http://www.phillytalk.com story that was first reported on that site:
Strong rumblings on the street say that Sunny (WSNI-FM, 104.5) will reshape its lineup to one of female-oriented talk, with some light-rock music shows thrown in

Julius, I know people kept telling you not to post whole articles, but a little more information here would have been helpful:

Two newspaper reports and one from a Philly Talk Radio blog say the station will add Whoopi Goldberg in morning drive (the station now runs John Tesh) and "Dr." Laura Schlesinger, in a time slot not specified. Schlesinger's show is fed live in PM drive in the East but most stations take the show delayed in late mornings the next day. Reportedly Sunny will continue with music (a mix of Soft AC/Jammin' Oldies is what they play now) in other time periods.

My thoughts: Dr. Laura keeps promoting chastity. Whoopi makes chastity seem almost appealing. They might work together. ::)
 
"Most" stations don't air her the next day anymore; Glenn Beck took care of that. She's on plenty of times in ET, from live, to evenings, to the next day to some new weekend airings.

Your reference to her as "Dr." as about as petty as the attacks on Steph Miller you complain about. She has a Phd, you don't, get over it.

Schlessinger's doctorate is in physiology (the study of the functioning of living organisms, animal or plant, and of the functioning of their constituent tissues or cells.) Most of her listeners think that she has a doctorate in in psychology or psychiatry. Why does she mention her title as "Dr." 45 times on her web page.
