“K-Love disc jockeys have created a mythical average listener, whom they call Kathy.
She is a mother in her mid-thirties with 2 kids, a minivan, & a mortgage.
Kathy is very busy, driving her kids to soccer practice, piano lessons, & youth group.
As she drives, she listens to K-Love.
Kathy’s name come sup frequently during staff meetings, & the DJs make sure their on-air antics won’t upset or offend her sensibilities.”
