O'Reilly on thin air in Denver (about to be canned on Denver radio)
http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drmn/entertainment_columnists/article/0,1299,DRMN_84_4108965,00.html

Bill O'Reilly may be the king of cable television, but he doesn't have a court of loyal listeners on Denver radio.

His weekday talk show on KHOW-AM (630) will soon be replaced by one hosted by Glenn Beck, another syndicated personality who'll take over the noon-3 p.m. time period.

Under the contract, Clear Channel, operators of KHOW, must give syndicators of O'Reilly's series time to shop his show around in the Denver radio market before he's dropped from the station.

KHOW is making the move, according to Jerry Bell, program director of KHOW and KKZN-AM (760), because O'Reilly's show is in an audience rating funk - last in a talk radio battle that includes Rush Limbaugh KOA-AM (850), Sean Hannity KNUS-AM(710) and Ed Schultz KRZN.

Of course the stupid radio programmers go for another wingnut idiot.

1. Didn't O'Leilly have to PAY stations to carry him at some point?

4. Beck will appeal to the small cadre of knuckledragging haters in Colorado
His lack of intellect, compassion and common sense will find a small but loyal audience who are put off by the intellectual (fraud) O'Reilly.
