For the past couple weeks Boston listeners have had a choice of Levin on WRKO 680 (7-10 pm) and WKOX 1430 (9-mid.). No longer. WRKO, more powerful, is dropping Mark, see below; still on the weaker WKOX though...
>>Entercom’s WRKO/Boston is making a change in its nighttime programming. Being added is the syndicated Dave Ramsey Show, which will replace the syndicated Mark Levin Show. Ramsey’s financially based talk show is heard on over 550 stations nationwide.
Entercom Boston VP/Market Manager Phil Zachary said: “After a long day reporting and talking about hard news, Dave’s show invites our listeners into the homes of America’s working class to hear their stories, struggles, and triumphs. It’s radio ‘comfort food’ ideally suited to New England values.”
Not surprised. Just like WTIC AM, which at 3PM has a sports talk show. I sense that people are concerned more about their own need to survive and begin to shut the politics down.
I think on WRKO, “New England Values” preclude hosts from New England. Moe Lauzier & Avi Nelson come to mind.
