Jonathan 2 Posted January 27 I am SO happy Tanya Tucker won 2 Grammys and got to perform last night. Her first Grammys of her nearly 50 year career. But then I get up this morning and drive to work and guess what I hear... Both radio stations in Charlotte morning teams were "outraged" Tanya won last night. They were saying things like "Has anyone even heard that song or know she still records albums anymore" "She had her day at Delta Dawn and should have won then" "She looked 61 going on 70 with botched plastic surgery" and so on. I mean I was so mad I changed stations from one to the other just to hear it from both stations. This is why Country radio sucks. I mean the legends are looked at as a joke and one of the DJs had been there 30+ years well into Tanya's reign of hits in the 80s and 90s. I mean picking on this lady for her looks cause she beat out other artists they like better? I really really hate Country radio. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember though these stations reluctantly play Scotty. No taste! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bleuwolf 8 Posted February 8 I would think these personality changes with iHeart will decrease their audience even more. Mobile, WKSJ-FM, has lost a 20+ year DJ, one who the community has identified with as the voice of 95KSJ. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
