On Demand 1350 am?
What happened to Progressive Talk 1350?

I sent WWL an email telling them I no longer have any use for my radio. I don't think it will change anything, but I am highly disappointed.

:-(

2. Aha! It's an effort to compete with Cheap Channel's new talker WRNO
yes, that WRNO. The music moves up-dial, just like it did out here last year.

The long-delayed format switch from classic rock to news-talk at WRNO FM-99.5 happened Monday just before 4 a.m....

Failed mayoral candidate Rob Couhig
( :puke: -Ed.) and former WKZN-FM deejay Bo Walker were the early-morning hosts....

Advance news of WRNO's impending flip is one likely motivation for WWL's newfound multiplicity....

Last week, Entercom killed the leftward-leaning Air America syndicated talk network at WSMB AM-1350 in favor of time-shifted reruns of local WWL talk shows.


So that little mystery's solved -- but what's to prevent the conglomerates from doing this to their AAR and other progressive affiliates anywhere there's talk competition? :shrug: Makes sense to me: more RW talk coming, so let's drop all our progressive talk! :sarcasm:
