Radio Gazza - Canadian Radio Update for November 7th, 2008

This November has been bucking a trend so far. Generally speaking radio doesn't make a lot of music changes this time of year, but with a few exceptions, there's actually been quite a bit of movement this week. Let's hope it stays that way through to the big December Freeze.

Notable:
-For those of you who haven't heard it yet, there were two Quebéc radio DJ's who go by the name "Justiciers Masques" that got Sarah Palin on the phone by pretending to be French President Sarkozy. Hear it here.
-XM Canada narrows annual net loss to $74.3M from $84.6M as revenues rise
-Chuck McCoy to be inducted into the CMW Hall of Fame this year
