CNN.com - Whatever happened to rock 'n' roll radio? - February 7, 2002 He's the author of "FM: The Rise and Fall of Rock Radio" (Villard), and a longtime radio industry professional who spent almost 30 years with one of the pioneers of free-form, New York's WNEW-FM. At WNEW, Neer writes, the station was sold several times in the 1980s, and -- with rare exceptions -- each time the new owner brought in a consultant with little feel for the market or the station's history. By the end, WNEW was a shell of its former self -- and it's not alone, Neer says. edition.cnn.com /2002/SHOWBIZ/books/02/07/fm.neer   (977 words)

RWonline - RW Special Report The primary focus of "FM" is on WNEW, one of the city's first progressive stations. The scope and revered place of WNEW's place in radio history are summed up by the next-to-last line of the book, which calls WNEW "the one station that broke all the rules and got away with it longer than anyone else." Start with that thought, then go back to the beginning. The numbers of high-quality FM receivers for home stereos and cars were increasing, and although it would be more than a decade before FM passed AM for listeners in music formats, the opportunity was there. www.rwonline.com /reference-room/special-report/03_rwm_neer2.shtml   (1230 words)

CNN.com - How to kill a radio station - Mar. 3, 2003 WNEW thrived through most of the '80s, its family of loyal listeners tuning in even as free-form faded away and playlists began. "WNEW was the hip place, where the hip people who were into music went," says Pat St. John, a DJ at rival WPLJ -- until he joined 'NEW in 1987. But instead of a Garcia tribute, WNEW stayed in its format-of-the-moment: a mix of classic and alternative rock. www.cnn.com /2003/SHOWBIZ/Music/03/03/wkd.wnew.woes.ap   (1058 words)

nrmm4037.txt WNEW and WYNY argued that grant of the modification application should be reversed because it resulted in the issuance of an authorization to WBZO with parameters that reflect short-spacing under the current spacing rules. The Commission found that WNEW and WYNY's apparent contention that the staff's grant of the modification application in and of itself was violative of the Commission's spacing rules was patently without merit. The Commission agreed with the staff that WNEW and WYNY's contentions were in actuality aimed at the 1990 grant at hearing of the initial WBZO application for a construction permit. www.fcc.gov /Bureaus/Mass_Media/News_Releases/1994/nrmm4037.txt   (229 words)

Blogcritics.org: "FM: The Rise and Fall of Rock Radio" by Richard Neer Part autobiography, part commentary, "FM" follows the ascent and crash of FM radio in general and WNEW in particular. The downward spiral of WNEW was wrenching for me, and moreso for Richard Neer; the early chapters, bulging with war stories from the glory days, turn sparse and palpably painful for Neer as the end approaches. In the early days of FM radio, the AM dial was still setting the pace, so FM was a place where it didn't matter much what you played or how you filled your timeslot. blogcritics.org /archives/2002/10/26/212145.php   (563 words)

The Complete Howard Stern Links! - Ratings - New York City - page 2 WNEW, a classic rock station at the time, was only a shell of what it had been in the heady days of progressive and free-form FM radio during the 1970s.

WNEW afternoon team Opie and Anthony rose from 2.9% of the audience to 3.9%, and were No. 1 almost across the board in their time slot among young males. www.animaux.net /stern/nyc2.html   (20772 words)

NY Post article 1-28-03 - The Unofficial Opie and Anthony Message Board - Wackbag.com WNEW is doing what the radio biz calls "stunting" - airing a bizarre interim format to distance the station from the previous one while creating buzz and suspense prior to the launch of the new format. With one big exception, WNEW never made a splash as a talk station, seldom rising above 20th place since its legendary album rock format was shut down in September of 1999. WNEW's sudden flip from talk back to music surprised even station staffers, including weekend host Eddie Trunk. www.wackbag.com /showthread.php?t=6615   (683 words)

Printer Friendly Version - Radio's Muni dies He was a complex mix, friends and coworkers say, of a sharp, competitive radio man and a big kid who loved a party, played Santa Claus at WNEW Christmas shows and was known to start water fights.
