You know what happens when a radio station trys to go beyond the popular fray? The majority of listeners leave. That means the ratings go down and that means the advertising goes away and that means you're dead.
I will not apologize for what I do whether anyone thinks what I play is good or not. My station outsells the other 17 in our chain and I'm not ashamed of that because we aren't playing a bunch of fringe artists.
I don't attack anyone else for the way they do their job or the way it's best to do thier job because it keeps them in business. So **** you to anyone that thinks they know how to keep a radio station viable in the current market. You don't like it? Piss off. There are other things available.
As soon as all the actually good artists become what the masses demand that's what we'll play. In the meantime get a clue about business and survival in a competitve market and good luck doing better with playing what you want to play.

See man there ya go again,I apologize and it's fock you to anyone...please dude I'm the only one busting your balls so just be a man and call me out personally.Don't think for a minute I don't "get" the whole masses and advertising thing why the hell do you think I opened my own advertising business 22 years ago...because i didn't have to cowtow to the masses and some corporate jack-off writing me a paycheck.
"oh I'm sorry small mom and pop business that's trying to survive,I can't take your ad because you can't afford us,because we reach 100,000 readers/listeners daily."
