Just an update to a story that went cold a couple of weeks ago. A good example of what happens when leftists run things. Radio first, the entire nation next.

How do whiny, emotional jerks manage to stay in business for any length of time, who would want to listen to it?

My cousin, bless him, is a raging leftist, and even he won’t listen to the stuff. He listens to Rush and Levin and spends the day screaming at the radio.

Wow, I haven’t thought of Randi Rhodes since she made some comment about McCain being a friend of the Vietcong.

[TruthHound]

Oh, the humanity...

Pings to those who follow this subject. It appears Rhodes has to keep mum on this so she doesn’t violate her contract or endanger a future case. The her getting picked up by Dial Global was just lefty wishful thinking and nothing else. The Nova M/On Second Thought website has nothing new since Feb 18.

Hilarious stuff.

In my search for more info on this I came across a bit that states Jerry Springer is returning to the radio. Are negative ratings possible?

I've never even worked in radio but this whole story has had me enthralled from the start. I could fill up several pages on this but it boils down to niche market shows that may work in a few cities being taken nationwide with predictable results. I still wonder how much Soros sunk into this entire mess. I hope it was more than the couple of million that we know about.

Libs scream about what went wrong. One claim they make is a lack of on air talent, but every leftist who could talk for more than five minutes has had a show at one time or another. People didn't care to listen as it was boring.

Here in Ithaca, NY ...FREEPER CODENAME “City of EVIL” is one area where the LIberal radio seems to be doing well, (but then this county voted NADER).
after the hasty retreat of Bill O’Reilly, our “Rightwing talk station” got 2 of the 3 hours LIVE of THE GREAT ONE, Mark Levin.. so there’s hope for us, yet.

OF course .. have you seen MSLSD errr ..MSNBC lately... I think their entire ratings base are the employees in the same building.

LOL! The mental imagine is cracking me up. Maybe deep inside there's a conservative inside him waiting to break out. Some people thrive and can only relate through a combative relationship...

This is exactly why they need The Fairness Doctrine II and I’m sure this will be held up as an example.

It wouldn’t surprise me if t his was a put-up.

[Hoodat]

But . . . but it’s not fair. Obama should order the chains be removed so that they can go back on the air. I’m sure we can come up with some bailout money for that.

If you people really want a laugh, go to the actual article and read the pathetic suck up ‘comment’ from some cretin calling themselves ‘Ozy’, sounds like they copy and pasted the former broadcast prospectus for 1190 AM, praising those leftist losers who are now locked out of their own offices, lol - 10 to 1 ‘Ozy’ is one of the former 1190 AM staff trying desperately to put the best spin on a humiliating situation.
