I just reported what was said. Argue with them if you like. I'm not
up for it.


Oh! Now you're just a reporter?

First, you're more of a historian if your intention was to inform anyone
about a 10 months old blog. Sheesh!

Secondly, you're more of a relay of fiction since you have produced no
credible evidence other than some one's say so!


BTW: It ain't about votes. It's about entertainment first, then it's
about breaking the stranglehold that the lunatic fringe has over talk
radio. Beating the Weiner Nation in New York is a start.



Oh! So now it's also about entertainment. I agree. Those Hawaiians listening
to those three AA stations must be rolling off their islands in
uncontrollable fits of laughter.

On a horrible, suburban, daytime station that has limited coverage and does
not even go on the air till 7:30 AM in winter, and goes off by
mid-afternoon.

Quote:
"
Excerpt from this article by Robert Feder, in the Sun-Times on May 3, 2005
(scroll down about halfway):

*In anticipation of a format switch under owner Newsweb Corp., WAIT-AM (850)
changes call letters today to WCPT (for "Chicago's Progressive Talk").
Picking up WAIT's call letters is Newsweb's WSCN-AM (820).
As tipped here in February, expect an announcement any day that the suburban
daytime station will become a showcase for the liberal voices of Air America
Radio's Al Franken, Jerry Springer and Randi Rhodes along with Jones Radio
Networks' Ed Schultz. "



They expect to start turning a profit later this year


Not likely.

Ratings in Portland, which were good to begin with, are up.


Ratings in Portland, OR, which were good at the start, are off the mid-2004
peak by 20%. They have now slipped over two successive surveys. The ratings
in Portland, ME, are non existent. Take your pick.

Franken can say just about whatever he wants. That does not however make it
true.

I can't receive Air America here and I have no soundcard here in this computer.
Could someone possibly burn me a standard CD of Air America so's I might be able
to hear it first hand?

Fundamentalists don't vote as a rule. They don't trust either party.
There needed to be a volatile issue to get them out.

Yeah, and that issue was the possble election of the total idiot Kerry.


No doubt about it. Yet, those idiots supporting (S)kerry can't handle or
accept the harsh fact that they put up such a dud for a candidate. Ergo,

in
their self-absorbed, campus-propaganda, sheeple mentality, there *must* be
another reason... So they come up with all sorts of absurdities to shift

the
blame away from their own failed ideologies -- if only to make themselves
feel a bit better. Bush did it. Rove did it. It was anyone else, except
themselves and their loser candidate. The whole lot of them are pathetic.
What's truly pathetic is the incessant drive they have to demonstrate

their
inherent patheticness over, and over, and over...

What's even more pathetic is they're going to run him again in '08.

I used to pick up WAIT in the early 1970s when I lived in Reeseville WI
near
Waterloo. Weren't they originally the station on 820? They had a fairly
decent signal back then.


820 is 820. 850 is 850. Just the call letters have moved around. 850 is a
horrible signal.

Yet more idiocy? You just keep on giving. There's no use trying to reason
with a troll like yourself who can't muster the brain cells to articulate

a
coherent position on most any topic.

It's a free country, Adolf.

And your free to be an idiot whenever you please as you show in here daily.

Cool... it was fun once, it'll be fun again!

Maybe this time we'll find out if he was actually dishonourably discharged at
one time. That'd be a real hoot.

Maybe in the city limits, but KTLK doesn't even cover all of L. A.
County.


Actually, the 5 mv/m primary coverage includes all of LA County except the
High Desert (which only one LA station covers well) and most of the OC,

all
the way down beyond Irvine. It operates with the highest power

permissable,
50,000 watts, during daytime hours. It shares the KTNQ transmitter site,

and
has 5/8 wavelenght towers, making for great efficiency.

As far as NYC goes, all I know is what I read in the funny papers (and
on the internets). Sources noted above.


Those ratings were over a year old.

He dosent care, as long as it satifies his agenda.
