You didnt mention any reports. You just threw out speculation to whip up a frenzy without any proof. You might want to be careful about calling people radicals when you do that type of thing.

A detroit station quit doing conservative talk radio a few years back and went to all sports all the tiem...Rush was immediately picked up by ABC. All you had to do was change the dial...(I think its ABC, they carry Rush, Hannady /sp and Levin....

There was someone posting on FR at the time that the move was likely from Clear Channel bringing their syndicated shows back to their own stations.

Huckabee???

I’ll assign the Alinsky label when I see his tactics being used by those who would chose to post on this forum.

You do realize that ridicule was not invented by Alinsky, right?

[Til I am the last man standing]

I posted a Jeffrey Lord piece, a piece from a local radio news website and a blog post from a similar site minutes before I posted my question about Rush. I did this as background for that question. Maybe you should keep up.

[Raider Sam]

You didnt post any of that in this thread.

You’re not missing anything.

He comes across as sort of a “Mr. Rogers” of politics (and not in a good way).

...and as exciting as a snail race.

[PROTESTBYPROXY]

Tell me what it is!!

Not at KSFO He was on this week

He's apparently gone now.

I can't find anything about it in the news or on the internet. Haven't finished checking the SF radio blogs.

Nothing on Rich Lieberman's blog.

Small hometown stations need to be worried. The internet will have the same effect on them as it has on their brothers the newspaper.

Yep. Here in the People's Republic of Illinois WTAX (Springfield) recently replaced Levin with some sort of Wall St Journal talk show. Guess the leftists up here must have complained too much.

They do still carry Back, Rush, and Hannity, at least for now. They got an earfull from me about Levin, though, FWIW.

All Cumulus stations are going to replace Rush with Huckabee when his contracts expire. That is what I am hearing.

All Cumulus stations are going to replace Rush with Huckabee when his contracts expire. That is what I am hearing.

Then they can take a hit on ratings and advertising revenue.

[GeronL]

Rush is expensive I guess.

They wanmt to save money more than they want ratings.

[Nifster]

Yup. I heard the Huckster on there this am. I am done with KSFO they have drifted so far from the days of Jim Eason.
