I was shocked this morning to hear WPOR play "Ring of Fire."  It has
probably been more than 20 years since Johnny Cash has been on their play
list.  They are doing a Johnny Cash song of the day this week as part of a
promotion for the Cash bio-pic "Walk the Line."

I don't know what it says about radio or popular culture when music that is
not usually deemed worthy of airplay gets airplay due to a movie.

Or is due to $ for the promotion?
