It seems my April Fools’ Day prank went off without a hitch– so NO, WDBX isn’t being bought out by JackFM; and NO, we’re not changing our format to a DJ-free “shuffle mode” vanilla stain.
I’ve gotten a lot of e-mail and messages about this today, all supportive of WDBX’s current programming and our value as an independent community station. E-mail has come in from listeners, staff, and a variety of artists whose only radio voice in Southern Illinois is at WDBX. It is clear that we’re providing something necessary, and something that people will fight to keep.

Damn. I thought I was being observant yesterday. I didn’t catch that as a joke at all. Good ‘un.
