The speculation continues after CBS announced a flip of another major market music FM to sports - how long before the trend hits here? Atlanta is the latest stop for the format, giving CBS nine markets (Atlanta, Boston, Baltimore, Cleveland, Dallas, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Tampa and Washington D.C.) where the format is either already on-air or coming soon to FM. The company now has a total of 19 sports stations. The new CBS Sports Radio Network (in partnership with Cumulus) begins in January and is planned for almost every major market except... Who draws the short straw, Jack-FM or KLOS? (all access)
I would suspect that KLOS gets the axe - Mark is retiring from Mark & Brian, so that's really going to hurt them in the mornings. Plus, having on-air talent like KLOS does costs a ton more than the DJ-free, computer programmed format that Jack-FM has.
