*** I believe that for many local stations, not group-owned, that's not
uncommon, especially people who've never run a station before. They
might think that because a format isn't in their market or appears
under-represented, that it will be viable. Or they may seriously
underestimate the time ( and money ) it takes to become established in
the market and to become viable even if they picked a format with some
degree of research.
