"Fair and Balanced comes to 55KRC." Just a couple of seconds. A small announcement at the end of Hannity. And Clear Channel affiliate WKRC talk radio at 55 on AM Dial announces their intention to drop CBS."

Sean Hannity has the 3pm-6pm slot now. I'll contact our chapter there! This could be good news if it's not just a promo for Sean's show. I didn't find any clue on their website.

I loved the poll: You have watched/heard all the debates, now which candidate are you voting for?

KERRY 8%
BUSH 88%
OTHER 3%

Not hard to see why CBS isn't well liked in Cincinnati. But CBS will find a new home at WKRAP. :-)

Look out! Someone good enought to tell me what a ping is. What's your take on this if in fact Clear Channel bowed to pressure to dump CBS in Cincinnati in favor of FNN?

I was just reporting what the announcer said at the end of Hannity today. I have called once and written a number of times how difficult it is to listen to CBS news in the middle of Rush or Hannity or Glen Beck.. It makes me crazy.

And today, they announced "Fair and Balanced is coming to 55KRC" so this is a done deal. What sort of deal this is .. perhaps is a big question. Does this mean KRC is going to be a total FOX affiliate or that they are just going to deal with the News situation.

I was really surprised the day I called because the receptionist said, "Yea it is odd, you need to talk to the program director", and she put me through! So, I explained to him, (Tony Bender) how distressing it was listening to Dan Rather denying what Sean and Rush and all of the folks here were pointing out as a matter of fact. And, he said. You're right.. I thanked him , and pretty much said .. yea right. But a couple of hours later KRC pulled Dan's 5pm commentary and played "Liar, Liar" instead. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1221661/posts

I know these folks are not just disk jockeys chasing a buck. They are good folks and not afraid to do the right thing. Anyway, so today, they have announced what they did, and we have to wait to hear what this means.

Sean has been on KRC for years now. This was an announcement of more importance. I have never heard those words on this station before. I begged for Savage to go away too.. asking for Tony Snow.. so maybe this piece of good news could be part of this package.

In another thread, someone said that Fox doesn't have a full news segment, Just a 60 second peal.

I wonder if perhaps Fox has been busy courting CBS talk radio affiliates who have to all be feeling the pressure. Perhaps this could result in a real shift of news on the airwaves.
