Default Whats with radio?

Last week I heard someone on y101 or xl102 or something saying that DC was supposed to get bombed or something, then I heard about q94 finally coming to an end (thank god)


Yet DC is still here and sadly so is q94

Mawlid al-Nabi (Muhammad's Birthday) is an Islamic holiday celebrated on May 2, 2004. This is prob what you heard a concern about. Ignorance spreads faster than herpes.

Clear Channel is being a big pussy and succumbing to FCC fears...which will suck in the long run being they have that huge radio/venue monopoly.

Queer 94 is the station that needs the most censoring. The crap they play isn't fit for human ears.

Billy Surf and Betty Bodine had worked togther for 10 years, and he is a radio show producer. Not sure where they will be picked up, but am sure that it will be a "package" deal. One of the fired afternoon DJ's was heard on a Va Beach radio station on Saturday. The night dj was also fired.

Q94 is moving away from hip-hop and R&B to move towards top 40 crap. The morning show is pretty much the same crew as the 1995 morning show.

I don't listen to the radio, too many commercials...

A morning spot is open at 106.1 in Poquoson on the peninsula. Not sure who is gonna fill it but would be interesting to keep an eye on the position.
