Buzz Knight talks about changes at 92.9

[Maureen Carney]

I have wondered for a long time where the next generation of on-air personalities (be it DJs or talk show hosts, or even programming people) are going to come from. The smaller stations are all on the bird, the larger stations are in love with voice tracking, programming is done by a computer and the audience runs from an open mike.
