Today, news of the end of WSNJ-FM, “the Cumberland County”:/cgi-bin/axs/ax.pl?http://www.fybush.com/NERW/2004/040202/nerw.html radio station that really was an alternative to the corporatized mediocrity of Clear Channel and its clones:
bq. It was bound to happen, but inevitability doesn’t make today’s sign-off of WSNJ-FM (107.7 Bridgeton) any less bittersweet. One of NEW JERSEY’s oldest FM stations, WSNJ remained a bastion of old-time radio in a voicetracked, consolidated world right up to the end, super-serving Cumberland County and surrounding portions of South Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware with everything from farm news to a swap shop program to lots and lots of local news and information.
I’ve spent many a car drive to Vineland listening to WSNJ. Julie’s heartbroken: “i knew it was over the other day…and i just wanted to cry. i kept checking back and checking back to see if it was just a technical problem.”
