It’s my impression that nationally syndicated Delilah helpd to kill, or nearly so, local radio.
Syndicated vt programming is killing local radio. It has come full circle, from the days when radio was network programming (Arthur Godfrey, Amos & Andy and live performances of orchestras nightly, to disc jockeys of the late ’50s. The decision to move away from live and local at a time when the Internet and mp3 players pose such a threat. There are plenty of people that don’t know that the morning radio show emanates from Dallas, and probably wouldn’t care if they knew.
