Perfectly horrible placement for a cruise ship ad
Unfortunate Juxtaposition spotted in today’s edition of the Swedish daily newspaper Dagens Nyheter, a full-page ad promoting cruise line packages just to the right of a full-page article about the Costa Concordia disaster.
Newspaper layout people should know better than this when a disaster has occurred.
Six dead, 16 missing is the latest count in the Costa Concordia disaster. A couple from Minnesota are among the missing.

2012 radio changes for the Twin Cities
New changes to the Minnesota airwaves have recently been announced. Update your presets accordingly.
102.9 is now a Country station. I guess Love 105 will have to provide the fix you need for the sappy stuff.


B-96.3 Hip-hop is now a new “adult” Top 40 station still playing some old cuts. Recent news says it will be less “teeny bopper” and host a bit more of a talk element.
Tony Fly and Perk from Channel 11 will be doing a morning show I guess.
So what do you think of the changes?
Here is the station I miss the most.
