(31,706 posts)Firstly...the information about Cheap Channel is out of date...the Mayes are no longer in control of the day-to-day of the corporation. Bob Pitman is the current CEO and it's Bain Capital (surprise, surprise) that control the purse strings of not only the corporation but Premier, the subsidiary that distributes rushbo's bile.
If you want to make real headaches...go local. Listen (if you dare) to the station's local commercial breaks and find out which advertisers are having their ads placed there. Then politely go to that business (in person always gets a lot more respect and positive response over a phone call and 10000 times more than an email) and tell the owner/manager how you'd love to do business with them but not as long as they advertise and support such venom. If the manager is unaware then politely explain how you heard their ad...my bets are most of these advertisers are not aware their spots are running on this bilefest and they'll be on the phone to a very nervous station sales or general manager in a hurry. From one who knows...nothing gets a station manager's attention than a pissed off advertiser...
