Taking bets... everyone, taking bets...
My bet? It's ratings will fall below subsistence levels within three weeks. It will stay on with artifical life support for considerably longer, and I don't really know how long that will be because I don't know the financial situation of the backers, but I predict that it will not have a single week "in the black" after it's third week out. And frankly, I'm being generous.

Robert Kennedy, Jr.?Give him a double shift - with his stumbling and stuttering he needs the extra time. Heroin has fried his brain.

Someone tried to start an all-female talk station here in Dallas a couple of years ago and it was aborted. I am not even sure it even signed on, it didn't last a day I would bet.

She told her West Palm Beach listeners this week that she plans to "bury" Hannity and Grant. She has no idea. She is certifiable.

When an article says a station has "leased time", they came a beggin with money. LOL

This means they'll have to try to earn more cash than they spend on the lease and hosts, right?? I wonder how much cash these weirdo's are willing to lose??

If the station intends to break even, these hosts will have to work for practically nothing.
