What a dump.
Emmis and local radio heydays are really over aren’t they? Emmis is but a shell of it’s former self, a once-powerful 50,000 watt AM station is silent, and local news and sports radio is mostly right-leaning (shouldn’t lean either way) and mostly filled with small-town radio voices and an overabundance of obnoxious ads catering to online gambling, hair loss, weight loss, and libido loss. Radio is not and will never be what it used to be, but there are still decent radio markets in this country, as close as Cincinnati — and certainly Chicago, Detroit, and Cleveland.
The writing has been on the wall for some time, but it was double underlined and highlighted in yellow when Smulyan gave up his pursuit to have the government force Apple & others to put receivers in their phones for the FM and AM spectrums.
David did you have a problem with NPR being extremely left-leaning? They were one of the worst out there.
Wow! The facts look otherwise. Emmis did sell the building and the stations, and Jeff S is old enough to do so at his will. The Apple issue was probably Apples loss more than Smulyan’s in total returns, and we’d all be better with another iPhone option of free airwaves.
Your ideas of doom and gloom for Wibc et al, seem fabricated David! Radio One has owned the stations for a couple of years and some of the shows and stations have enjoyed top ratings both locally and nationally.
Two large buildings on the Circle will now be vacant. Not good for Indianapolis. Hopefully not for long.
The Fan’s use of two difference frequencies is needless. One of them should be converted to a news stations (not a so-called “news-talk” station like the right-wing WIBC. With more than two million people in Indianapolis and the collar counties, not have a 24-hour news outlet seems like a missed opportunity.
