On this addition of CTS, it's a wide variety of topics.
First, SBS has filed comments with the FCC to deny the extension of Cox Radio's divestiture of two stations.
Then, Pennsylvania has a lot of activity in format news.
Last but not least, a public station in California rebrands to avoid confusion with another network in Vermont. This leads to a discussion of how many commercial stations use the same or similar branding.

Sorry this is late, I'm annoyed about it myself as I had plenty of time to get this out and still didn't. Anyway, below is for the website.
It's a quiet week in radio this week, so we spend the majority of the show talking about two major personell matters. First, Eric Ferguson is out at WTMX in Chicago. Then, what's going on with the Dan Bongino show? Once that discussion is over, we move onto what few format changes there are.
