I read your write up about the WBEZ challenge. Looking beyond the technical part of the argument, there has been a very positive impact that 87.7 has been making in Chicago since May 22nd. First, based on my 15 years at the previous Smooth Jazz station, there is a proven market for this format ...I would be happy to show you the over 1500 emails we have received. More importantly, while most media companies are cutting back we are hiring...many of those we have hired or partnered up with (including me) are displaced, talented professionals who were loyal to the over leveraged, larger media companies. We just want the opportunity to work and hopefully make a difference. WLFM LLC is an enterprising business that is looking to satisfy a very specific need in the Chicago radio market. We are responsible and serious broadcasters. So far...so good. I would love to talk with you one-on-one...there's a very good story here...the more human side. Thanks for listening...
