Radio Station Changes Format from God to Sex

KFYE-FM hasn't budged from the Fresno-area dial, but it's about as far as you can get from the Christian music, sermons and Bible stories it was broadcasting until about a week ago.

According to a recently published report, now the station calls itself "Porn Radio" — "all sex radio, all the time," with a suggestion that people under 21 not listen.

Songs with little in common except suggestive titles and lyrics fill the playlist, including "Why Don't We Do It in the Road," by The Beatles, "Sexual Healing," by Marvin Gaye and "Nasty," by Janet Jackson. Tamer songs are heated up by adding recorded moans and groans.

The change, made after the station was sold this month, was met with several non-sexual groans from some residents.

The station tries not to cross the line, owner Jerry Clifton told USA Today.

KFYE has been playing songs in a continuous one-hour loop without commercials. Clifton wouldn't say whether he plans to eventually switch to a more traditional format.
