WKTI To Flip To Sports

T

TheBigA

Country Aircheck just reported that Good Karma will flip WKTI from country to sports on November 1:

WKTI To Flip, Staff To Depart: Good Karma Brands is flipping Country WKTI/Milwaukee to Sports Nov. 1. The move aligns the company's sports and broadcast interests, but will lead to the Oct. 31 departure of staffers including PD Ryan Wild, MD/afternooner Karen Dalessandro and morning personality Carol Vonn.
 
On 8/21, Nurse Jeff and I thought this was a possibility :

Made sense two months ago, and makes even more sense today. Good Karma is living up to its namesake with 5~Forty, 6~Twenty and 94~Five.

That's why you're the doctor. It will likely mean the death of WTMJ.
 
Not surprising in the least. It's the obvious thing to do. I'm sure IHeartMedia is glad to hear this- it leaves 106.1 WMIL as the only country station in the market again.

For the time being. Saga likes running its Outlaw format on many of their translators. Someone will go for those shares besides WMIL.
 
Not likely there will be a second full power Country station again unless MRA pulled the plug on WLUM, which probably isn't going to happen.
