Found this on WTAM's website.

-Overnights don’t get any better than this. Topical, current and never boring. George Noory digs into the unknown -- from alien life to mysterious crop circles! You never fall asleep listening to the King of the Night. It’s radio that pushes you to the outer limits.-

George continues to do a fine job. So much for the B.S. that his rating were dropping! He has taken the show to new heights and has a long term contract with c2c. You guys are showing displaced anger cause Art left you all out in the cold. Art was good but so is george. It is the guests and the callers that make the show, not the host. Get use to it.

Hi Bupper,
What are you basing your comments on?
The show has lost some large affiliates.
The ratings must have decreased because of this.

The people that I know who used to listen to CTC AM don't listen anymore.

I believe tasteless pap was the most adequate description I have seen given here for Mr. Snoory. Cheers George, Snore On!

Mike Seagull had a "long term" contract too - PremRat simply bought him out of the contract after barely 6 months. I'm sure Snoory will meet the same fate since he is losing all the big 50KW stations!

dumbing down

Those who support Snoory have helped to kill the "program" and if the host's role was so unimportant to the show we wouldn't be hearing so many complaints.

Coast is no longer 'Coasting' - it's slowly grinding to a halt. Thanks to misplaced dumbos who won't see that they've put a baboon behind the wheel.

The whole thing reminds me of a commercial I've seen recently on TV where monkeys are holding bananas to their ears - as though communicating 'on air' - and screeching at each other. While PremRat steps in momentarily to say, "Can you hear me now?".

Its so painfully obvious PremRat is trying to fool and condition listeners because the screeners obviously tell callers to butter up George went they get on the air. Have you noticed a lot of callers say EXACTLY the same thing "George you are doing a GREAT JOB!". I wish someone here could get thru the screeners and give us the inside info of what those screeners say to you. Snoory is too scared to have real unscreened calls like Art - thats the real proof. Snoory's idea of unscreened is have screeners that just don't tell him where the caller is calling from, but the screeners can still program and filter the callers.

It's a "dumbing down", Conscious. Unfortunately, proof positive that their tactics are extremely effective.

Heh - I'm not going to. It's not an "Art vs. Noory" thing anymore. It's long past that now. It's the simple fact that the level of the show has taken a nosedive. We, who are used to higher quality content, can not simply sit by and let something this cheap be passed off as a true "replacement". We'd still miss Art even if the host was superb in their own way... but we wouldn't complain...

Get used to it? I don't think so.

Doug -- You musta read the (optional) title of my last post and BadBoy understands what is so "painfully obvious"... George needs the adulation to keep his head above water. Would someone kindly throw Noory an anchor!?
