After looking at Jack's pathetic rating, why doesn't Infinity get it? They have an oldies station in Philly that is sitting at a 3.9 which is down from a 4.6 last quarter. They are the only oldies station I can pick up, and I have listening since the demise of CBSFM. Joel Hollander is slowly dismantling that station the same way he did over at CBSFM about 3 years ago. He has forbade the word oldies from being mentioned, and they play the same jingle all the time, and to top it all off, the playlist has been reduced as well. For some reason the Joel Hollander HATES oldies! Why is Les Moonves keeping him around? He is a liability not an asset and should be removed from his position. Stations seem to fold like cheap cameras when he and his "experts" startes screwing around with them. Obviously oldies CAN be profitable by looking at WLNG's numbers and if Infinity wanted to cash in they would bring oldies back to CBSFM and model it after WLNG with legendary jocks like Bob Shannon, Harry Harrison, Bill Brown, Dan Taylor, Bobby Jay, Don K. Reed and any other former CBSFM jock that wanted a job.
