Getting Jack Off

After a little over two years Jack.FM is finally off New York City radio. On June 4, 2005 at 5:00pm without notice the oldies station was replaced with a bad computer mixer. The rest of United States loves this crappy formula radio along with talk radio, which also failed in New York.

Well it's over WCBS the oldies station came back today at 1:01pm. While I think they will downplay the 50s songs but still have oldies songs and live DJs. Hopefully they'll bring back Cousin Brucie and Mickey Dolenz. When it first went off the air I complained about it here but I always knew NYC was better than that Jack crap.

As for talk radio on 92.3 that also failed and they returned to rock. Why radio executives keep trying to force bad programming to NY is bewildering. Yes the rest of the country likes this format of computers and angry talkers but this ain't that place for dictator radio. NYC is too independent.
