As for W&J, I don't know one person who listens to them. Seriously. I guess I may run with a different gang of people (in my 30's here, most people I know listen to NPR, iPods, satellite radio, or the Internet in the morning).
As for Chris Baker -- I missed the Chris Baker of 2-3 years ago. He was funnier then, loved the Friday reverse trivia, and seemed to be more unique. I have a feeling that management dumbed down his show. That's sad.

Walton and Johnson on a news/talk station? Why don't they take some of the money from cutbacks and hire a PD with some experience in the format? Oh, yeah, never mind. It's Cheap Channel.

We have now determined that the listener base for the MOJO 950 is east of Downtown, most likely heavy pockets in the industrial areas of Channelview, Baytown and Mont Belvue. As long as KPRC concentrates sales efforts on Injury Lawyers, Aspestos Case Lawyers, Localized Dental Care Offices, Gun Shops & Shows and Trailer Home Lots they might get somewhat close to break even on operations. There's a whole host of sponsorship opportunities for them. What's the big outcry?  ? |

The numbers are going up, the revenue is going up, nuff said. |

OK Walter, you say such positives. Let's see if The MOJO 950 is in existence one year from now. I predict it won't be. I also predict Michael Berry won't be there either. One year is a long time and it probably won't go that long. If you're working there you should get a reality check at some point and make sure your resume is updated. If you're not working there how do you know their revenue is going up? HMMMM.

As long as the ratings and revenues go up it will survive, that is the nature of this business and you know it as well as I do. If it makes money they care very little what it sounds like. That IS radio. |

Ken Hoffman spent his show polling the audience as to if 1560 should try to get Baker. Could they even afford him?

I just posted Bobby Chaffin's and the adguy's comments about our office listening to W & J in the staff breakroom. Our office consists of 17 people. Of the 17, 15 have college degrees or higher. Our office is located in the Champions area of 1960, not Baytown/East Houston. We can hear KPRC 950 any time, loud and clear. Only one of the staff rides a motorcycle and its a $30,000 customized Harley for the weekends. We are all guilty of being Republicans. I guess by most standards we would be considered successful. The point is, we find W & J entertaining, funny and expressing our basic points of view on politics and life. We're just worried that they might repeat a lot of material during the 6 hour shift they will be working.

I wrote a e-mail voicing my opinion to the program director at ktrh. I was surprised that he wrote back so soon stating he could not discuss these matters and to give the new line up a chance. He was just blowing smoke up my ass...I'm a firefighter and for everything Chris did for us and police officers is there nothing we can do for him. boycott clear channel
