Roth is brutal.

So CBS is going to replace Stern's show which promoted Sirius satellite radio for a year...with O&A which will promote XM?

Can't say I understand the logic of that.

Depending on where you are in the country, Stern's show was replaced by Roth, or Adam Carolla, or "Rover's Morning Glory".

>>..with O&A which will promote XM?

Sean Hannity has had O&A on his show to promote their XM radio gig. One time, his then-Boston affiliate (WTKK, owned by
Greater Media) refused to air the hour where O&A appeared,
substituting a re-run. They didn't want to basically air a plug of satellite radio. Meanwhile, radio ownership groups
like CBS, Greater Media, and Clear Channel are rolling out
secondary FM signals on something called HD radio.

Hear pre-1964 oldies on the oldies secondary channel! Hear
smooth jazz on the FM talk station's other channel. And
the hot new country station airs classic country on their
secondary HD channel. These stations are running ads for
it, talking about the quality of the signal and all the
extra stations--and unlike satellite radio, it's FREE!!

Yes, the broadcasts are free...the receiver is $299...
