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.

I moved to satellite radio long ago. For these very reasons...local radio sucks.

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.
