The speculation sounds possible but already the whole board is assuming CBS will brillantly program WYAY into the envy of the group.
For years, Rick and the guys have given most attention and protection to one station in the cluster that makes so much money that this one station excuses their lousy job of running the rest of the group. That station is V103.
For a decade 92.9 has dicked around from format to PD and the result a few hits but a lot of misses. So let's see now, they're going to get WYAY and do it right? They don't have enough local management in key positions to handle it. V is the local CBS story. It's why they've never lost jobs over 15 years of worthless results from 92.9.
Is Kicks big enough to run itself? Kicks seems to be on a roll lately--more so than right after the Eagle/True Oldies flip, and despite Bull finally getting traction. Is this due to benign neglect from Citadel?
I also ask the same thing about True Oldies. Despite what GT&8O says, True Oldies is doing well as well, especially considering their canned format and shoestring budget. TO is doing better than Cool 105.7 ever did, or Fox in its last few years.
I also agree that there's no excuse for Z90Dave.
Are you suggesting that going from benign neglect under Citadel to perhaps more intervention (meddling) by CBS would hurt Kicks and True Oldies?
