Which *reallllly* makes you wonder why they ever pulled the plug on the 
format! Like the Joke format on WCBS FM. What *were* they thinking? Apparently, 
they weren't. Pull successful formats, and replace them with something that's 
doing far poorer in the ratings? Yep, that's a *real* NO-brainer. 

Of course, WCBS had some high-quality talent, and (hopefully) was paying them 
what they were worth. Now they don't have that problem. They certainly don't 
have to pay an iPod on "shuffle". Also, didn't I just read that they've 
jettisoned a whole slew of their staff? Bleah.
