My point exactly.  You want press releases, read the Globe.

Take care,

P.S.  Chuck, you've got a good point in that Imus has in a sense 
had his chance to succeed or fail as a long-term proposition in 
Boston--but I think that observation is reflecive largely of the  
station's all-around weakness and not necessarily of Imus' merits.  
It could be that Imus and WEEI were never a good fit, and the 
ratings reflected that over time.
