The ONLY place to hear the Pops 4th Concert? (2)

[Doug Drown]

<<I believe it is a CBS/Ch4/WBZ all-inclusive deal...

But how does that makes sense?

 "The only place on the dial to hear the Pop's 4th of
July concert"???

How does that make more sense?>>

Only as a  joint promotion for the network and the two stations, nothing
more, nothing less.  As you said, it's an all-inclusive deal.  It's the
claim that doesn't make sense.  It would if it were true.  Maybe 'BZ is
justifying it because it's an AM station,
