(19,926 posts)not because it wasn't lucrative, it was, but because it is owned by Clear Channel, I believe. I heard about it on Ed's radio show and I think they said it was owned by them.
Mike Papantonio was on and he said they're looking into suing them over it for that type of reason, they are taking away a benefit to the community that was a money maker and replacing it with something that already exists and is not needed, that the only reason they are doing it is to get rid of that viewpoint. Something like that. I love Pap.
In Los Angeles they've watered down the progressive station to the point where it's useless. The 9am and 3pm slots are ridiculous. Bad hosts and half the time when I tune it while driving they're talking about some bad pop culture or tabloid news type thing. Pretty sure Clear Channel owns them too since you have to go to iHeartRadio to listen to them online or on phone.
These are not even cities in red areas or states!
