WOXY - 97-X Oxford, Ohio, USA

A radio station not to be missed. It covers what others are afraid(or perhaps sometimes ashamed) to and more. They were playing Alternative before there was any. Most famously depicted in the film "Rainman", starring Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise, 97-X (The future of Rock and Roll) is a gem of new tunage. Playing everything from Elvis Costello to Temple of the Dog, WOXY is a local hero among radio. Still privately owned and operated, it flies in teh face of the Bubble gum, carbon-copy stations that permiate most of the Ohio radio dial. One can even listen to them live on the web from anywhere in the world at www.woxy.com. I highly recommend them. Free music, downloads, and tons of fun stuff to participate in on the site make the web site a great visit too.

Hi. Thanks for writing your article. I would suggest you have a look at A425819 as it is a good example of a fleshed out article on a radio-station. Before this article is ready for the edited guide, you may want to consider taking out some of the opinion in it and giving more facts. The guidelines for things to be written for the guide state that articles should be balanced.
You might want to try writing any history of the station or giving a list of the people who regularly DJ there and when and any additional information about them you know. I know my local radio station sponsors a charity around Christmas: is there anything you can mention on this front?

Anyway, thanks for submitting the article and good luck,

Researcher 205728 seems to have been a one-day visitor Maybe we should move this one back to the entry.

I'll take this one. I'm planning an entry about the city of Oxford, Ohio, so I can do both and link them.

The new version is at A965630.
