Re: [IRCA] KJR 950 Seattle HD



It sort of makes sense from a business standpoint, seeing as KJR-AM is the only one of Clear Channel's Seattle stations that's not already using HD.

Speaking of KJR (sort of), there's a rumor going around town that KIRO might switch to all sports, especially if they take back the Mariners games from KOMO (KOMO's contract ends this year, and they've been losing money on the broadcasts). If KIRO changes format, the current newstalk format would supposedly move to KBSG-FM. All of which remains to be seen, but head to head competition with KIRO would probably cut deeply into KJR's 2.0 share in the ratings (KJR has been sports talk for many years). Seeing as KIRO usually places in the top 5 with something near a 4.0 share, I don't see the wisdom of their going all Sports, but stranger things have happened in the radio business.
