Default You know....



There are actually times when I miss ol' Frackleton and his tirades
extolling the virtues of companies like Clear Channel (now iHeart Media,
and Cumulus) while railing against those in the group with a clue, who
insisted that debt would kill these companies, and the careers of
thousands of professionals streeted by them as they collapse.

Well, today, Bloomberg published a story describing the 11 figures of
debt incurred by these companies, the collapsing revenues brought about
by their lack of understanding of the listening public's tastes, wants
and needs, in the face of mounting competition from other, newer media
which understand the concept of mass customization.

Proving all those who insisted Frackleton was denying the truth were
not only right, but right with a bullet.

Funny, how karma works.

Many of those who ran Frackleton off also insisted that shortwave
broadcasting shutting off the transmitters in favor of internet
broadcasting were, in fact, short sighted.

Hmmm.

And as the politics of the world continue to become more dangerous, and
the internet becomes more and more censorable, how many broadcasters are
looking back at the HF transmitters gathering dust as a possible
resource to communicating with the world?

Hmmm?
