Said that the biggest change is that they'll retain the largest markets and will sell off the smaller ones...
Mentioned that this may indeed affect Druggie Boy Limbaugh in some places..
Also - earlier this week, one of our progressive stations in Anchorage (we actually have TWO now!
) mentioned how incredible it was that so many local owners were stepping up to buy various Air America Shows.
For example, just days ago... the Thom Hartmann Show was snapped up by someone.. I forget who.. and he mentioned several other programs -- and that while they will still be on Air America, that the ones being bought out will have
SECURITY.
Our main station in Anchorage was bought out by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) and boy-- do they ever take care of the radio crew over there!
Our newest progressive station is on "Morris Communications"... not sure if they're affiliated with Clear or not.
I do know that Clear Channel where I live is the one station with Rush, Michael Raegan, along with some local-yocal Rushie Wannabe-types... so I hope when Clear starts cutting, they blow them off the map!
