The Rogers application to take over CJNT and convert it to an English commercial station was published last week by the CRTC. Why no blog article on this yet?

Because I haven't slept in a week and I'm in a CRTC hearing right now about a much bigger issue. I'll get to it eventually.

He's even gone back to doing the CJAD newscasts on some days.

Friendly Fire with Ryan Doyle form Toronto is on, not Barry Morgan. I'm OK with that but is it temporary?

Yes. They're replacing Morgan during summer vacation.

I'm OK with that but is it temporary? Also, what do we have have to do to get rid of Andrew Carter? Me and all of my 50 year old + friends all agree that he is horrible. Thank God for Ted Bird on TSN 990. But that may not last either. I might have to move to Toronto where there is more than 1 good English radio station.

I started to tune into 91.9 Planete Jazz and now it will change formats. oh well.

WEZF 92.9 - even if the music is HOT, John Tesh and Delilah are not. 2 good reasons to avoid.

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people in this city reading this article have no idea that some of these stations exist. Hopefully now they do.
