WBZ overnight & A few different things

[Mark Casey]

For the many early risers....Yes--It would be great if WBZ would move it's 
News/Info programming up to a 4AM start. That would leave the 12-4am to fill 
with overnite talk/call-in programming...or...maybe some version of overnite 
news & info programming?

But..Please, Please....No more paid commercial programs. It makes listeners 
tune out. Sometimes they don't come back, or just come back less. Even 
syndicated or national personality or news and info programs (like Jim 
Bohannon etc) would be greatly preferred to the 30 minute vitamin, etc., 
programs. The only national program not to put on BZ would be Coast to Coast 
AM. It's already available many places on the dial at night, so it would not 
help WBZ.

Piggly Wiggly has many, many Supermarkets in North & South Carolina, like 
IGA, they are single owner stores or small chains.
Not branded as IGA, but IGA is the grocery supplier for our small meat & 
grocery market here in Hampden, MA. If you have a "neighborhood" market in 
New England , it may be supplied IGA, (or Piggly Wiggly--but the PW name is 
almost exclusively found in the Southeast & Midwest). Look at the canned 
goods to determine. Regionally, Piggly Wiggly has capitalized on local 
loyaties with their "I'm Stickin' with the Pig" Bumper Sticker Campaign-Ha! 
And....in their stores, they have a music format which only plays songs 
about food! It ID's as WEAT. (must be AM as the Florida station uses the FM 
calls)
Ok....Just kidding about the food music & WEAT, but the Bumper Sticker is 
the truth.
