Fair and Balanced comes to 55KRC

55KRC ^

"Fair and Balanced comes to 55KRC." Just a couple of seconds. A small announcement at the end of Hannity. And Clear Channel affiliate WKRC talk radio at 55 on AM Dial announces their intention to drop CBS.

Guess this is the end of CBS on talk radio in Cincinnati, Ohio! Woo Hoo!

Does this mean they're going with Fox? That would be odd, since Fox only offers one-minute radio news updates. CBS offers six minutes.

That was the whole quote. I have no clue what it means past the obvious. Perhaps Fox has seen an opportunity and decided to offer a competitive product.. Perhaps it means that they are going to get even deeper than that..

I hope you are right!!!!

Quick question... was this on Hannity and Colmes Fox News Network today? Shawn's website for his radio show is hosted by ABC in many markets. Sure would like to get to the bottom of this. A FNN radio feed would be the Bomb!

Uh.. I was just reporting what the announcer said at the end of Hannity today. I have called once and written a number of times how difficult it is to listen to CBS news in the middle of Rush or Hannity or Glen Beck.. It makes me crazy.

And today, they announced "Fair and Balanced is coming to 55KRC" so this is a done deal. What sort of deal this is .. perhaps is a big question. Does this mean KRC is going to be a total FOX affiliate or that they are just going to deal with the News situation.

I was really surprised the day I called because the receptionist said, "Yea it is odd, you need to talk to the program director", and she put me through! So, I explained to him, (Tony Bender) how distressing it was listening to Dan Rather denying what Sean and Rush and all of the folks here were pointing out as a matter of fact. And, he said. You're right.. I thanked him , and pretty much said .. yea right. But a couple of hours later KRC pulled Dan's 5pm commentary and played "Liar, Liar" instead. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1221661/posts

I know these folks are not just disk jockeys chasing a buck. They are good folks and not afraid to do the right thing. Anyway, so today, they have announced what they did, and we have to wait to hear what this means.

Good news, bad news.

55KRC is doing Fox at the bottom of every hour, but it keeping CBS at the top.

Just darn.

That half as much.. mmm.. better.. I will take what I can.. but thanks for the heads up! I was rejoicing.. and didn't notice the CBS news still being there...
