Possible format changes in those cities...and it looks like in Boston it's a definite that the only R&B station is going to hard rock. (Radio One does own WILD-AM 1090 which runs the black talk network--Rev. Al, etc.--and gospel; maybe that will go back to R&B...)

Rev. AlSharpton I presume and not Rev. Al Green (R&B, Gospel, Soul singer).

If WILD switches to rock,there'll be riots in Roxbury and Dorchester.

Terrestrial radio is pretty much dead, wouldn't you agree?
Everything these days is streaming. I subscribe to satellite radio but even that is 95% streaming these days.
Sirius/XM has a good gig going. Over 100 stations of commercial free content in just about every possible genre of music. DJs with decent personalities and a lot of "countdown" shows like on the 70s, 80s, Prime Country and Highway stations. Lots of concerts played in their entirety from decades ago even. I usually stream that stuff ON DEMAND.
Can't remember the last time I tuned in a terrestrial radio station. Pretty much dead.
