JUMP! 106.9 is a Corus Entertainment Network.
They should be ashamed of themselves. Why don’t they just shut the station down and play automated network programming 24 hours a day? On weekends, they could have infomercials. They could then convince the CRTC that there is absolutely no demand for local radio and that their license could be renewed for 10 years . If they can do this nonsense on once great CFRA and get away with it, then the sky’s the limit.
Oh my, what the Bear has become
Absolutely disgusting.
Clearly Corus have given up.
Jesse Reynolds had won a contest to be the next morning Show co-host on jump. Then a few months later a wave of cuts hit and Tony Stark left mornings and went to afternoons. They stopped being live 24/7 and just made a lot of cuts. Midday host is also middays at fresh Kingston. Evening host does evenings at fresh Cornwall.
The belief at Corus was jump would be the only station in Ottawa doing that format and they would instantly be number 1. But hot 89.9 does so much better. Kiss 105.3 does better then jump. Jump would be wise to change format. But Corus is stubborn. It takes a lot to convince them to stop beating a dead horse and actually pull the plug
Radio People: “Voicetracking is the devil”
Corus: “Hold our beer…watch this”
Like in many Cdn markets, Corus is run by far too many graduates of the University of Stupid…
The next time I hear a radio consultant say that “local wins the race”, I am going to punch them in the throat! Oh yeah thats right, Corus is being run by TV people and the radio consultant they have is an American. No wonder Corus is looking to unload radio. Because they fired all the radio people!
If it wasn’t so sad, it would be laughable. Syndication, a bean counter’s best friend.
I hate the loser line, you can tell it’s turned American, so trashy. Will be listening to better radio stations.
