Glen,
Anything on your playlist would be better than the JACK-FM format. It 
makes me puke.
(Sorry Rich).

Rich writ:

 >Nothing worthwhile in this business is easy. Some of us love to do
that. Your GM was right to give you enough rope to hang yourself.
That's really all a good PD asks for. There are too many really great
PDs out there who have no authority yet get blamed when the GM or
Owner's directives fail. Today's PDs are usually scapegoats.

Absolutely.  Any good organization hires people that they believe 
know what they are doing, and then they let them do it.

Right now I'm being hassled by our board president who wants to 
decide which songs to play:

Him: "Why don't you like _________?  It's a nice song"

Me: "It's not a matter of whether or not I like the song, or whether 
or not it is 'nice'.  What matters is, is it a hit or does it have 
hit potential.  I.e., does our target demographic want to hear it, 
and if so, how often?"
