Bill Hong raises an interesting question about CM radio listeners with this comment: >the commercials on WGMS certainly indicate an intended audience of >reasonably high disposable income (i.e., Jaguar commercials playing >Vivaldi). In Seattle, the commercials on KING ("Seattle's classical choice") are aimed almost uniformly at hypochondriacs. From Vivaldi to Copland, the surrounding commercial messages are a parade of quack remedies, food supplements (including something called "the leading brain support supplement"), and some kind of special shoes which are claimed to cure everything from migraine to acid reflux. Come to think of it, if the station's "demographic" feels itself to be so fragile, maybe that is the reason the station broadcasts no modern music more challenging than Appalachian Spring. A few more dissonances would probably send their listeners scurrying to the medicine cabinet, or perhaps to the shoe closet, for relief.
