Best of the Worst, Gag Me.

"It’s actually probably in the best, most cohesive shape it’s been in in 10 years."

-Sean Ross, radio consultant for Edison Research, commenting on Top 40 radio

Best? Cohesive? Really?

Should those be the descriptors of a format that makes me want to puke up the past 22 years of my life? Should those be the descriptors of a format so bad that even people who listen to it think it's awful? Should those be the descriptors of a format so terrible that it makes me embarrassed to claim that I like listening to music?

Check out this facinating article on Top 40 music.
