| | ohnotheydidnt: American radio hangs up on Madonna |
 | | Warner Bros. was aware that the songs on "Confessions" could present challenges at mainstream top 40 radio, acknowledges Tom Biery, the label's senior VP of promotions. |
 | | According to Dom Theodore, regional VP of programming for Clear Channel and program director of top 40 WKQI Detroit, today's programmers consider each Madonna song on a case-by-case basis to determine if it fits mainstream top 40, adult top 40 or both. |
 | | George Ergatoudis, head of music at BBC Radio 1 in the United Kingdom, says that while U.S. mainstream top 40 radio may be driven by urban, rock and straight-ahead pop, dance records -- house music, in particular -- are very much part of the top 40 radio culture in the United Kingdom and Europe. |
