Isn't Channel 38 now owned by Uncle Mel from Viacom/Infinity?  The same 
one who ordered all Infinity stations (such as WCBS, WBZ, etc.) to 
increase the amount of stop sets and commercials a couple of years ago?  

WBZ-1030 also airs infomercials now also, doesn't it?  It never did years 
and years ago.

I rest my case.

P.S.: Do people like Mel Karmazin and Randy Michaels ever listen to their 
respective companies' radio stations or watch their TV stations?  What do 
they think of being subjected to all those commercials just like the rest 
of us? 

Unless Mel has a large record and video-tape collection so he probably 
doesn't bother.  "Let them eat cake."
