Where does WLS-FM evolve to? Lilith AC? (played out) Alternative? (played out). Jams playlist? (never). Killer Bee playlist? (never). Classic hits in all honesty has evolved to a Hot AC format, depending on the market and the competition.

Classic hits Evolved from Oldies. Oldies defined a lifestyle, a set of golden years. Sure, they didnt play everything, but they played a lot of it. Classic Hits overall is just ignoring swaths of artists and music. By 1990, CHR & Top40 was fragmented. Classic Hits is choosing further fragmentation.
