Terrestrial radio is dead
I read a column last week that Dan Mason, the President of CBS radio wrote, proclaiming that radio was far from dead. Early in my career I worked in radio, and it's an industry I still follow closely. Mr. Mason talks about the changing demographics of the listeners and how innovative the industry is with all of their streaming apps and HD radio and how we may never have another Howard Stern, Tom Leykus, or Rush Limbaugh again. I fell in love with radio for the personalities. Johnathan Brandmeir, Steve Dahl, Howard Stern. To me, this is radio. Not voice tracks and a few cookie cutter formats. I subscribe to SiriusXM and listen to people like Adam Carolla and Marc Maron's podcasts regularly. This is the radio I know and love and this is the radio I choose to listen to.
