[BC] Legal ID Question

[Bailey, Scott]

IMHO.....I've felt the public and listeners for the most part care less
about a station COL. The only interest the Legal ID draws is us in the
industry, be it the broadcasters or hobbyist.
The everyday person that we see on the street each day only cares about
programming. Doing a legal ID is just to satisfy the FCC, to make sure
"we are on our toes", and means nothing to the average Joe or Suzie out
there listening.

I guess the question is defining "programming that should not be 
interrupted".....common sense dictates the right answer - but there are
those that will stretch that out and define that on their own terms.

I never quite got the concept of "burying" the COL.  In the big picture,
if the programming on the radio station was great, the COL seems of
little
significance to the audience.
