This group of bombastic, washed up has-beens?  Cutting into RKO??  Get real.  As
"messed up" as RKO is, or is percieved to be, this syndicated fare won't make
any real dent into 680.  Unless the syndicated program is well done like an
Imus, Stern or Rush, people won't listen regularly if at all.  The only way 1200
would be competitive is to bite the bullet and put on some local programming.
