Quinn and Rose are off the air, (temporarily, I hope!) Gone, but DEFINITELY not forgotten! Meanwhile, our friendly group of dedicated FReeper Q&R fans will meet in our usual spot - same time, same station - as we always have! So grab your coffee - or whatever you choose to start your day - and drop in for some political chit-chat, or just to shoot the breeze! We are all coming from - or going to - work, but we all stop in to say ‘hi!’ Feel free to join us!
Remember to check out the Quinn & Rose website at www.warroom.com/wordpress/home/ for further updates.
I’m sure many of you saw this when I posted it last, but here is part of what is posted on the warroom:
“Dear Quinn and Rose listeners:
We continue to be moved by your loyalty and your support. So many of you have written to encourage us during this time. As you may know from reading media reports — we will remain off the air in the Pittsburgh Market for a brief period of time. Many of you have asked what our plans are thereafter.
We can tell you this; we are considering multiple exciting opportunities and we are confident that we will be back in your cars, homes and offices before you know it!....”
Mornin’ everybuddy!
Morning! LOL!
Sitting/laying/leaning in this hospital bed, I can see snow and snow and while waiting for Yosemite to blow everyone else off the airwaves, I feel like I am in a bomb shelter.
This is a brand new patient wing and my room is like a hotel suite except that I can barely move. If I could though, this is the nicest room I ever had.
It has a remote to listen to radio, but I can’t hear it anyway. Can’t win for losing. Someday though.
I actually emailed Quinn last week and found out that they were fired from their broadcast, (why I have no idea, and Quinn did not say), and they have a 6 month non-compete agreement in place that would not allow them to broadcast until May of 2014.
Hope to hear them then!
Oh Mesta, my prayers continue for you! I don’t know your whole story. Is there someone who helps you? Did I hear that you have a little daughter?
God’s blessing upon you and her sweetie. I hope things get better.
They probably spoke the truth one too many times. They got my blood boiling in the morning too! I always felt more informed when they were on. Nobody else measures up to them. If it wasn’t for Free Republic..... My buds on the daily Q&R thread requested that I keep it going while we wait for the non-compete period to be over. Next, we’ll follow them wherever they land. I hope it’s someplace where we can listen via computer.
Good morning!
Yes indeed Mesta mrs p6 and I continue to send prayers for you! The Lord has His plan and His time. Often we can’t understand His challanges but we are all embraced in His love. When we face everyday knowing that and accept our challanges with constant, firm belief, the battle is won and we will emerge stronger and victorious!
Thank You Father for all Your Blessings!
Meanwhile there are more and more rumbles about several stations making changes. ESPN to 104.7, possibly 970AM going talk. The problem there is the signal is pretty weak.
Oh my...so sorry to hear you are in the hospital. continued Prayers your way Mesta for you and your child. (((((Hugs)))))
Prayers up to you for your full and speedy recovery.
I never did understand how a non-compete could be in force for an involuntary termination. The company is both depriving them of their jobs AND preventing them from getting other employment in their field for a period of time. Sometimes these non-competes are for an entire year.
I was "blessed" with the opportunity to hear them on the radio every morning.
I will admit that I took them for granted, and never imagined that they would be removed , or replaced.
I found both Quinn and Rose to be informative ,entertaining , ..but mostly inciteful as to the kabuki theater that we call "Washington".
They are missed in my home . It's kinda like giving up 3 cups of coffee in the morning , ..and going 'detox'.
I hope they return soon ,both to the radio ,as well as access on computer .
They are now also bribing us to listen to Bloomdaddy by giving away $50,000.
And running promos trying to make him sound like a Conservative.
