Just as 97-Rock survived "Buffalo's Rock Station", WHTT survived "Dancin' Oldies", and WBEN survived WBUF Talk, WEDG (and Star) will survive "Jack".

One has to wonder what the next "format du jour" will be.

I may not like talk on fm, but I do see that that's what Infinity may do with 92.9 again in the future, with nothing much local. WBEN will survive with local talk, but again this is all just my opinion, (based on Infinity's new plans for a network talk format...)
