Later Kraddick! I have enjoyed your show since you first came into Memphis. As you can see with these messages, radio leaves alot to be desired here in Memphis. Unfortunately alot of people dont understand how it works. Radio is reflective of the major consumer of its location. If the major consumer is african-american, you will be flooded with rap stations, R&B, and all that other stuff that most southern white people cannot stand to hear. Memphis is like 70% african american, which means about 70% of our local stations will be catering to their likes. for the audience that enjoys Kraddick and other more "white friendly" stations, i would suggest satellite radio. radio is very similar to tv. the local stations just wont have much to offer one day, other than public broadcasting, news and specific marketing programs like what we are starting to see now. I appreciate the good shows you have done, and look forward to catching your show somewhere else someday.

Steve
