Showing Original Post only (View all)So Cumulus Radio would replace one blowhard (Hannity) with a BIGGER Blowhard (Savage) [View all]
http://rbr.com/a-savage-reality-for-cumulus-stations/A Savage reality for Cumulus stations?
Michael Savage - The hottest radio syndication story thread in some time has been the fate of big-time talkers on Cumulus stations. Now, somebody is talking, and predicting that Michael Savage will be replacing Sean Hannity and that person is Michael Savage.
Mediaite reported the Savage claims, and also says its heard about Cumulus plans for Rush Limbaugh which is interesting because initially Limbaugh and Hannity were being discussed at two parts of a single syndie package.
Mediate says that according to its sources, Cumulus is viewing Limbaugh as a keeper, and further that Savages claim will be confirmed sooner rather than later.
Michael Savage (WIENER) says some really awful things. But he's mostly on very small radio stations, in evenings, overnights, weekends, etc. But if they put him on afternoon drive on bigger stations I guarantee you he'd last one year before he wouldn't have an advertiser. Right wing talk radio has a HUGE problem. They are having big trouble finding national advertisers. Savage will be harder than Rush, Hannity, or Levin.
