Default The Armed Forces Radio Revolution - Changes at the AFN and AFRTS

David,

Please take two Aspirins and lay down and Rest.

Why ? - You gave NewsMax as a Source ! ) ~ RHF

READ - U.S. Military Stations (AFN & AFTRS) around the world
could soon be playing more hip-hop and rock and cutting back on
country music, sports and talk shows.
http://www.newsmax.com/archives/ic/2...5/101045.shtml
The most significant change would be creating Two Music Stations
for World Wide Broadcast. One would feature mostly Hip-Hop, Rap
and Pop Music, and the 'other' would play Classic Rock, Alternative
Bands and a mix of Top 40 Selections.
- - - So are we to conclude that Country Music is to be Out-Lawed ?
Why not have One have One Classic Country Hit and One Top Ten
Country Hit per Hour on the second 'other' Radio Channel ?

Here is a more Detailed Report on the Story
-from- "Stars-and-Stripes" -by- Leo Shane III
http://www.estripes.com/article.asp?...5&archive=true
Future Military Radio Menu could be more Pop,
less Talk - Hip-Hop heavy content recommended
for Stations around the World

Seems like the US Military has two target Listener
Groups : All those 34-Years Old and Under and All
those 34-Years Old and over. Will both groups be
served with programming that Entertains them and
Informs them ?

the more you know - the more you know ~ RHF
