Info:
In the next 45 days, the station we know and love as Q101 will be dropping its modern rock repitoire to become an all-news station.

------Why should you boycott the news station?------
Q101 is not only a station that plays good music- it's a Chicagoland staple.
Q101 is as "Chicago" as the Bulls, the Bears, the Cubs, the Sox, and the Blackhawks combined.
Q101 also helps support local artists by having a very accessible way to send demos into the station for airplay.

q101 is also our local station for listening to Dr. Drew and Psycho Mike's "LoveLine".

------How will boycotting the news station work???------

If a large number of people pledge to boycott this new 101.1 station, then companies who seek to advertise their product or service will not invest in 101.1 by buying commercial spots.

If you ran a company, would you pay to advertise on a radio station that has a miniscule fanbase?

By staying loyal to the "true" Q101, the news station will not be able to afford to operate on little-to-no advertising revenue, which may force the white collar boys who bought out OUR station to return Q101 to its original programming.

Take a stand and show the world, and Q101, that nobody takes away our favorite radio station and gets away with it!

Please KWWHunction, help save this radio station! It's the only rock/alternative station Chicago has.

-Thanks,
DXS
