SAVAGE is BANNED from the SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA!

Posted on 09/10/2009 9:21:39 AM PDT by ggrrrrr23456

Just heard on Savage's home radio station, 910 KNEW, that they will be dropping his 3PM to 6PM PST slot in favor of the Armstrong and Getty show!

I am interested to see what his reaction will be to this one...

First banned in Britain, and now in his own hometown???

Not remotely, it is an utter failure and its last pages are being written.

That's my take, too. I hope I'm not just seeing what I want to see, though...

If memory serves, years ago KSFO tried John and Ken and they BOMBED big time. They did not displace any local hosts. There was an opening.

Shocked, KSFO management had the two do a show or two taking calls exclusively from S.F. area and broadcast only on KSFO. John and Ken and KSFO invited S.F. to talk about it.

The biggest problem was that they WERE NOT LOCAL enough!

At the time KSFO has several local hosts -- including Savage -- and the John and Ken Show just did not measure up to the serious issues that the other KSFO hosts presented.

Again, John and Ken were not taking a local host's slot, that I recall.

If he gets good ratings someone will pick him up. That’s not exactly what I call a ban.

He does get good ratings. I listen to him on KSTE 650 (Sacramento) and when I drive to the Bay Area it's still loud and clear.

Then, apparently you are unaware of the new ‘diversity’ rules that are being imposed by the FCC.

Unfortunately, 650 gets spotty reception in my area.

I don’t understand Michael Savage’s appeal. The other night he was very upset that he wasn’t getting the credit for bringing down Van Jones. The self-aggrandizing gets really boring. However, I can put up with it if I learn something from listening. Maybe it’s just been coincidence, but each time I’ve flipped on his show he’s either complaining about and mocking other hosts, or bloviating about his childhood or what he had for lunch.

They couldn’t pressure stations to take Glenn Beck off the air right now- it would have raised to much attention.

This reminds me of Mark Williams being dropped at Sacramento's KFBK.

Gays, radical Muslims, ILLEGAL alien groups, liberals, progressives, anti-Iraq-war groups, Sacramento Bee employees, California Democrats, some KFBK management, and more worked tireless for years to get him off the air.

We aren't, this is the freest and most successful capitalist country in human history.

I know your life would be more romantic and dramatic if you were struggling hopelessly against implacable foes and odds, but the pretense is ridiculous. You are a pampered wuss upset about a pea under the mattress, while you live in epic prosperity and freedom.

I don’t see anything confirming this “scoop” so I don’t believe it.

He’ll get picked up by another station.

They ought to pick up "America's Morning News" with John McCaslin and former Bay Area host Melanie Morgan from the Washington Times. It's syndicated by Savage's syndicator and runs on the same station in DC. It's a very informative, quality radio program.

There was one particular city on the east coast that was known far and wide for it’s stench back during WWII and was commonly referred to by a name befitting an outhouse. I suppose it will be forced to yield it’s notoriety to San Francisco.

Actually, KSFO has them live, albeit at 3-5AM. I listen occasionally when I can't sleep.

The downside to the show, though, is that they have 7 minutes of commentary, then 5 minutes of ads for get-rich-quick schemes, don't-pay-your-taxes schemes, increase-your-length schemes, and a lot of other stuff that makes the Sham-Wow guy sound good!
