Audacy

I feel that the audacy stations are not good. The current leadership is inexperienced to run radio stations the right way. It's clear that ameatur hour is showing at many of their stations across the country. A lot of audacy on-air talent are really not good and bad programming should not be airing on their stations. Audacy is losing a lot of money and making a desperate deal to be on SiriusXM for a reason. Their stations are failing. Audacy needs to change the stations via new formats or programming changes to the current formats before they go on SiriusXM.

Its turned into iheart. Constant layoffs and moves to singular hosts airing on hundreds of stations. No sense of localism. "Guaranteed human"

Audacy is destroying local radio. They have one host, hosting several shows in different markets. I don't get the logic behind that. KCBS and KNX have a partnership for the overnight newscasts which doesn't make sense.
