Local radio does still exist in some places but it's much more common to
get stuff off the bird with local announcements inserted off mp3 files.

That is if the announcer on a music show didn't record the show at home
last Thursday using a clock that they hoped was set to show the times
when the show would actually be broadcast. The news and localised
adverts are just slotted into the gaps or faded up at the correct time
over the music.

It JUST HAPPENED AGAIN:

On WBAI FM 99.5 IN NEW YORK CITY, the announcer of "A New Day" mis-announced the time as "7:27" when it was actually 7:47am. She did apologize and correct herself. This is a LOCAL, PRIVATELY FUNDED radio station with studio and transmitter both within the boundaries of NY City in the EASTERN TIME ZONE.

So I'll ask once mo WHAT KIND OF CLOCK do these radio stations have on their wall, if any?



I blame the 5G.
