Full Service Radio Can Still be a Successful Format

(Welcome to new readers of my blog, and thanks to Tom Taylor for the plug. Here's one of my more quoted and read posts. Thanks to Sean Ross for allowing me to write this guest column for his "Ross on Radio" newsletter. Sign up for my "Brainstorming Radio" newsletter here .) As a young Reds fan living outside Cincinnati, I grew up listening to Full Service Radio without knowing it. WLW – “The Nation’s Station” - was always on the radio at my house.

Full Service Radio is STILL A Great Format

High profile personalities (James Francis Patrick O’Neill, “The Morning Mayor” and Rich King in the afternoon) were on every daypart. It met the listening needs of everyone in our household (until I became an unruly teenager and discovered WSAI.) It also met the needs of a lot of listeners (up until the mid 70’s, WLW was number one every book and had almost twice as many listeners as the number two station . ) I got into radio programming during the “Great Differentiation” of the 80’s. The Back Page of R&R went from one chart to n...
