Globe: Met Opera out at WBOQ

[Kevin Vahey]

A week in Chicago showed me it is still possible to have good local 
radio for everyone. Chicago has slipped a notch in 15 years, but the 
dial is no cookie cutter yet.

WGN AM does newstalk as well as anyone and WBBM has found the perfect 
mix of WCBS,WINS. WSCR does sports well as does WMVP. WLS makes WABC 
seem liberal. 1240 still is a delight. WIND owns the hispanic AM 
audience.
One thing of note, NYC based shows do not play well there.

FM WFMT is a gem, as is WXRT.

Overall Chicago maybe the last great "local" market.
