Rats leaving a sinking ship

Alright, I find this article just too much.

The upshot? Clearchannel and Viacom systematically ruin broadcast radio over the past 20 years, then when new technologies - Satellite Radio, internet streaming, and iPods come along to give people a friggin' option, listeners jump ship in droves for something that doesn't suck so much. So devaluing their assets by billions of dollars wouldn't be necessary if they a) weren't so behind the times technologically and b) had any idea of how to program a radio station (hint: letting local DJs determine content seems to work).
