Hope this isn't a dupe - I didn't see it mentioned before.

2. For a show that didn't make its ratings, it sure had a helluva

lot of commercials.

3. I am so sad to hear about this

I hate WLS. They are THE most biased station in the nation. Recently the program director fielded questions from listeners and basically said that they don't aim to balance their lineup at all since they don't feel that's what the market wants.

It's simply appalling. We have to take back the media.

4. one less voice of reason

Same thing happened to Peter Werbe on ie America Radio of all places for "budgetary constraints" - yeah right. I never listened to Ski but Peter Werbe got the same boot which really sucks as he is THE best talk radio host for the Left - outdoes Malloy hands down.
Now you can only hear him Sunday nights from 11pm-1am (yawn) out of Detroit and sometimes it streams online. Ski I believe is still on ie America Radio so check them out (grrr) for listening to him. I sure will.
Even "liberal" radio is starting to cave. Times are rough folks. Hang in there.

5. Who's his replacement today?

Another repeat of Hannity?
