KTRS/AM550 sets up programming seminar


The locally owned (CH Holdings) AM radio station has set up a three-day seminar for their employees that will help the few poor souls who remain employed there to:

-- Understand the mysterious mission of current management - "What is Tim Dorsey really thinking? Or does Tim Dorsey really think?"
--  Help develop new promotional ventures that actually include touching listeners - "Y98 has cardboard standups of their listeners; why don't we?"
-- Invent any reason at all for the continued employment of Charles Jaco - "Jaco:  Give me one good reason! Maybe he's promised Tim Noriega's Rolex."
--  Understanding Arbitron's PPM - "Well, they look like pagers.  Can we get drugs by calling?"
-- Create new avenues for revenue that might conceivably pay dividends to investors after all their years of involvement - "Is there anything after baseball, from which we don't get a freaking dime?"

The seminar will be held in the parking garage of the Westport Gold Tower in any area in which fewer than five cars are parked as soon as a few employees register.
