The Phillies looked to have squashed division rivals, the Atlanta Braves, with a three game sweep pushing them 10 1/2 games back in the standings. It was the first series sweep suffered by the Braves since the Phillies did it to them last September. It also put the Phils at another franchise high 43 games over .500 at 91-48 on their march to a record breaking season with 23 games left.
Not that there really was any doubt that Roy Oswalt, with all his experience, would have that... Read More |

| Phillies Reach 90 Wins Despite Rain; Tickets Can Still Be Exchanged |

| The game may have started just under 2 hours late and only a few later innings saw the rain let up to a mist, but the Phillies keep proving they are deserving of the league leading 90-48 record. It was a minor miracle that a window opened up long enough and early enough that baseball could be played last night at a reasonable hour with drenching rains covering the area before and after, but Rookie of the Year candidate Vance Worley improved his record to 11-1 and the Phillies stretched their...

| Why Change 94.1 WYSP FM to WIP; Ultimate Demise of WYSP |
| |
by: iradioal - Philadelphia, PA
started: 09/02/11 2:26 am | updated: 09/02/11 3:03 pm |
| |
| 94.1 WYSP is just one of a growing number of music FM stations that have followed AM's path to spoken word. In August, newly formed Merlin Media flipped 2 FM Alternative Rock stations 101.9 WRXP in New York and 101.1 WKQX in Chicago to All News. CBS has already changed 8 FM music stations to Sports Talk over the past 4 years, 610 WIP going to 94.1 will be #9. Right here in Philly, Greater Media turned Contemporary Hits station Now 97.5 into The Fanatic, simulcasting 950 WPEN in October 2009.... Read More |

| MTV Video Music Awards Celebrates Music Videos on Channel for at least One Night |

| The MTV Video Music Awards may seem like a contradiction or at least ingenuine for a channel that doesn't play videos anymore and furthermore doesn't have VJs that can serve as the face of the station at the awards. In this, the channel's 30th year, reality programming is wall to wall, and music is no where to be found. Instead music fans turn elsewhere for the medium MTV heralded for years. They've watched all these nominated videos and they've become hits on websites like youtube. Artists who... Read More |
