This is one of the worst-written blog entries I have ever seen. People who
put up blogs that purport to be news should at least take English classes so
that they will be able to write sentences that won't embarrass them.

Dr. Demento Ends His 40 Year Old Radio Show
 

From Dr. Demento Website

June 6, 2010

A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT...

This weekend, the Dr. Demento Show will have its final broadcast on
KIYU, KLOO, WLVQ (QFM96), WRKH (The Rocket) and KOZT (The Coast).

This was a very painful decision for the Doctor...he really hates to
let it go after almost 40 years...but he has come to agree with his
manager and his family that it's necessary. The broadcast has been
losing money for some time.

THE GOOD NEWS -- Dr. Demento intends to continue producing new shows
every week for www.drdemento.com for the foreseeable future. A new one
will be available Saturday morning, June 12, and more new shows will
be posted every Saturday thereafter.

Also...if you live in or around Amarillo, TX, you're in luck...by
special agreement and due to contractual considerations, a version of
the internet show will be heard weekly on KACV-FM there, at least
through the summer.

The Doctor wishes to express his grateful appreciation to everyone
who's been listening in Alaska, Oregon, Ohio, Alabama and California,
and hopes all of you will give the www.drdemento.com broadcast a try.

Stay deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeemented!

Seems that the recording was intended to promote American Airlines'
service from Chicago to Lakehurst (via Newark), which would then
connect with the Hindenburg to provide transatlantic service all
the way from the heartland. Obviously, the recording never got used
as originally intended...
