An easier combo sale? A flanker to bust Entercom’s chops a bit? Beats me, but if this is really the plan and not a misdirect, there is certainly data we don’t know. Doesn’t mean it will work, but that the gamble offers enough potential upside to roll the dice.
Something about this still feels like a smokescreen. I know enough not to bet on that, but just a gut feeling. But hey, maybe The Breeze will sail into success.
I guess it's possible that a lot of folks there might be the same folks who though that Rumba 104.5 was a decent gamble as well. LOL. I also am still leaning toward this being a ruse because it just doesn't make sense to flip a station that might have long-term legs in favor of something that's failed repeatedly in the market. Though it doesn't seem to happen often in Philadelphia, market conditions do change so, like you said, maybe they know something we don't.
