Clear Channel Bay Area Talk Shuffle
Clear Channel has announced it will be realigning the programming at its two San Francisco Bay Area AMs on January 3, 2012.
The Fox Newsradio 910 KNEW branding and calls will move to 960, though most of its current lineup will remain at 910 which will become Talk 910 KKSF.
New lineups:
The new lineups for each station will be as follows: Talk 910
6am-10am: Armstrong & Getty (simulcast from sister 650 KSTE Sacramento)
10am-12pm: Clark Howard
12pm-3pm: Tom Sullivan
3pm-6pm: Local Host To Be Named Later
Fox News Radio 960
6am-9am: Glenn Beck
9am-12pm: Dave Ramsey
12pm-3pm: Randi Rhodes
(HUH? Not conservative!)
3pm-6pm: John Gibson
Evenings: Alan Colmes (again, non conservative)
The Progressive Talk format currently heard on Green 960 KKGN will remain available on 103.7 KKSF-HD2.
(to re-use an old joke from Spinal Tap! "Don't worry our concert in Boston got cancelled...I hear it's not much of a college town...")
Both these line ups sound terrible. I have heard most of those talkers and they are terrible.
Meanwhile, KSFO rules:
http://www.ksfo.com/programschedule.asp
3:00AM 5:00AM America’s Morning News
5:00AM 9:00AM Brian Sussman
9:00AM 12:00PM Rush Limbaugh
12:00PM 3:00PM Sean Hannity
3:00PM 6:00PM Mark Levin
6:00PM 8:00PM John Batchelor
8:00PM 10:00PM Laura Ingraham
Rhodes may not be Conservative, but she’s owned by Clear Channel, just like the rest of the national lineup on that station.
Other than Tom Sullivan, Glenn Beck, and John Gibson, the rest of the lineup sucks. Here in Rapid City, SD, which has two talk stations, one station has Thom Hartmann on in the evenings and Michael Savage up against him on the other. I’ll pick Savage over everyone else on the radio dial here in the car, but when I am at home in front of the computer, I’m listening to Mark Levin.
They’re keeping John Gibson? That is the most tired and predictable show in all of talk radio. His promo should be, “I insult Obama and then take calls only from enraged low-educated socialist blacks, 3 to 6 every day, right here on KNEW, 910 AM!”
