[edit] Miscellaneous

"The station today has experienced years of steady decline in its audience. Most observers trace the decline to its emphysis on extreme right-wing politics that is out of step with the population of the Greater Boston area." I, personally, would agree with this. But this is an opinion that is not often brought up. You fail to mention 'FM Talk' 96.9 WTKK signing on in 1999 coinciding with the decline of WRKO. The decline of AM radio in general. Also, the reliance of too many syndicated shows instead of local origination (this wold include the first three hours of the Howie Carr drivetime program).

I removed this line. It's clearly POV stuff. MPWard 05:32, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

It's a blog, and therefore not a neutral point-of-view. - Dudesleeper · Talk 01:04, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
