^Under Citadel, 92PRO-FM would've probably been one of the format leaders on this

Yep, of all of the CHR's they've taken over, I'd say PRO's been "ruined" the most. I can't speak for the majority of them, but last I heard 95SX, their playlist wasn't that different, but more conservative with new stuff.... Cumulus just can't do CHR well. They do other formats decently, but CHR....ugh. |

They're terrible at Hot AC also - what format are they good at? I guess their Alternative stations are decent, but they only own 4 or 5 (including 99X) BTW I'd think people would be complaining about PRO-FM becoming so conservative - that's one of the most liberal areas of the country, and Cumulus is programming it like it's a station in Alabama |

Yep, of all of the CHR's they've taken over, I'd say PRO's been "ruined" the most. Did you guys notice that one day after this post, a large banner appeared on AllAccess reading "Congratulations Cumulus! Pro-FM pounds PPM 12+" What the banner doesn't say is that the share numbers are actually slightly lower than they were for Pro-FM under Citadel - and that Clear Channel's Hot AC there, WSNE, is up 0.5 since Pro-FM dropped the Modern AC lean and WSNE picked it up it response |

Their Country stations are generally very well regarded. It seems like their Urbans are as well. |

Funny that the Hot AC-ish station in Greenville, SC, WMYI, has started playing this song (actually they play the promos for the band/song more than the song itself, but they are playing it). But I have yet to hear it on our CHR, B93.7.
Definately agree it's a great song and hope the band gets some more airplay. This area is known for being a bit behind the times (heck, all the stations in the area were even pretty late in catching the Adele train last year, but now they play her to death).
