Free FM dies a painful and well-deserved death

WFNY in New York, formerly Free FM is now (and once again) 92.3 K-Rock. Ironically, they’re called K-Rock, which was their name before the disastrous changeover to Free FM took place in January of 2006, but it was because their old call letters were WXRK. I wonder if this means they’re going to have to apply with the FCC to change their call letters or if there’s some kind of limit on the amount of time you have to wait to do it?

Either way, welcome back K-Rock and good riddance to frigging FreeFM.

Oh, and in case you were wondering, yes, Opie and Anthony are still the morning show on the new 92.3.

Life is good.

Hat tip to Chris who’s been covering this all day like a fat broad covers a skinny guy while having sex.

Or something.

    Vinny,

    First, eff you for that horrible, horrible image I have of that pox faced woman who’s been on your front page a few days now having sex with some dweeby dude. Seriously, thanks. :)

    As for WXRK, since CBS owns the current WXRK in Cleveland, it’s a matter of filing paperwork with the FCC saying they’re moving the calls back to NYC and applying for a new set of calls for the Cleveland 92.3 K-Rock.

    Should take a week or so.
