I (J), more than most people who commented above, know more about the operations and running of the music aspect of the station on a day-to-day basis.
I am staying out of this, but since Brock is a friend of mine and Benny is also a friend and someone who I have personally seen improve the station I will comment briefly.
Brock isn't taking anything away from Benny by pointing out a fault on Metro Pulse's part by not interviewing any of the student volunteers that work down there or simply using more than one WUTK source for the article. Not necessarily me, as I certainly don't mind being behind the scenes. Just use more than one source for research.
Benny has done great things at the station, but there wasn't any mention of students (however, the story wasn't about us--hint hint...hahah) and that should still not take anything away from the progress made down there since his arrival.
I wasn't there before Benny got there (I arrived six months later) and can not comment on the station before, but one can not deny it is a joint venture of progress and accomplishment between Benny & his staff. This bickering back and forth needs to stop.
Thanks!
Jay.
P.S. The article mentioned "College Music Journal" and that is incorrect. It is officially "College Media Journal." See the history page at cmj.com for clarification.
Also, WUTK was nominated for a total of six (6) national awards at the CMJ 2007 Music Marathon, 4 station nominations and 2 for myself. See the article at: http://prod1.cmj.com/articles/display...
P.S.S. Pick up the new Redistilled CD!
