Maybe 'RXP should have tried to be more like Project 96.

update:
It appears that Fram and Pinfield have swapped show slots with Steve Craig putting Steve in the 6-10am slot.
Looks like they're going through some changes...possible format flip in the rumor mill.
From Wikipedia
Majority ownership of WRXP is being acquired by Merlin Media LLC, a new entity headed by veteran radio executive Randy Michaels, in a sale announced on June 21, 2011.[7] The Chicago-based company will also become majority owners of two Emmis stations there, WLUP and WKQX, through the same deal.
Present speculation in the New York City media has focused on what format WRXP will carry upon Merlin Media's takeover of the station's operations (Merlin will begin running WRXP through a local marketing agreement prior to the FCC's approval of the sale). Such speculation is centered on the station flipping to a hybrid news/talk format, which has not been attempted in New York City on the FM band (not counting short-lived talk formats on WXRK and what is now WWFS). However, a format change at WRXP to country has also been speculated after it was revealed that Merlin Media registered the web domain name "1019wyny.com" on June 20. The call letters WYNY are closely associated with country music in the New York area, having been the call sign of two different, now-defunct country-formatted stations. Merlin Media has yet to announce its plans for WRXP or either of the Chicago stations it is buying through this deal.
Not sure I can picture Craig doing country music..but they're running these "I'm with the band" promotions right now (wow, a 99x thing, how novel), so I'm not seeing a flip to country any time soon.

No no. They moved Steve Craig to mornings because Matt Pinfield has a TV show now. |

It's 120 Minutes. They had a brief online series called 120 Seconds on MTV Hive, but they plan to air the actual TV show later this year.

I highly doubt that Rob Roberts would hire Leslie back, nor do I think she would accept his phone calls.
