There was an interesting article in the WSJ yesterday about Cumulus' new CEO, Mary Berner, and her attempts to revitalize the company amidst the after affects of its recent poor acquisitions, reduced revenue, and crushing debt burden. KLOS is featured prominently in the article, which is unfortunately behind the Journal's pretty tough paywall. The site I linked to below has about half the article presented before it cuts off to the paywall.

I'll just add one more sentence myself, which is the last one that I know several posters here will find interesting.
In Los Angeles, KLOS has shot to first place among men between the ages of 25 to 54, from 17th a year ago as its programmers started subbing ’80s and ’90s hits for ’60s and ’70s favorites, and hired former Sex Pistols guitarist Steve Jones to revive his locally beloved “Jonesy’s Jukebox” radio show.
Take that, KSWD.
