Well, ya just had too much competition from ABCCBSNBC, etc etc etc. When everyone spouts the same line, the little guy goes under. Kind of a lack of "diversity" in programing there, son.

Progressive - just a fancy way to waste letters and sylables trying to spell the word "FAIL".

When there is no support of advertisers, it becomes difficult to operate unless you have a government teat like NPR.

Wow. They must have been REALLY bad when even Democrats won´t support their station´s format. Truth is, liberal radio is not informative, nor is it entertaining and in radio that combination fails. They just sit around and kvetch about Conservatives. I used to listen in Phoenix when Air America was on...those shows were just flat and they "hate(d) George Bush!"

What #2 said....sadly their failure is at our expense.

Definitely go read the quote in the article. They gave their heart (and time and money) to 0bama et al and didn´t even get a kiss. And to be replaced by gospel music must feel like a hard slap. Too bad they´ll never stop and think about what really happened or take some of the replacement gospel music to heart.

The thought process of the moron left is encapsulated in this sentence fragment:

"...Progressive Talk will be silenced..."

You´re not being silenced you idiot. You´re being pulled because you´re losing money. Anyone this stupid should not speak into a microphone for a living anyway.

I guess they forgot to take a look at the progressive talk radio boneyard before they signed that lease.

#4, that´s right.

The "progressive" program (what do they do that is actually progressive rather than regressive?) was pulled for lack of interest on the part of listeners, which translates into bad revenue for sponsors, who then pull their product/service off the show, leading to $ losses for the station. Is the station supposed to broadcast for free?

But hey, NPR gets public funding. Wanna bet the FCC will find a way to get this show funded by your tax dollars? After all, all sorts of government failures and travesties get funded by government. Why not this show, too?

As for "feeling betrayed", by whom? If they blame the station they claim some sort of animus or at worst, they betray a lack of understanding of how advertisers=money=continuance of show. If they blame the listeners, they´re calling them stupid for not realizing how wonderful the show is.

Whine, whine, whine. But at no time do they EVER blame the content of the show.

Think back to early in 0bama´s first term in office.....a Democrat who had supported him asked for help and was told to stuff it! As the article said, "fool me once...."

Adios libs

Don´t go away mad, just go away.

We have to get them back on the air ASAP. It´s less than four years to the next presidential election and Ohio is the state that chooses our leader.

Conservative talk show radio shut down here in MA in August. Since the shooting in CT, the only thing you hear up here, is screaming to take the guns away. It is so serious the price of smelling salts has soared!

You owe it to yourself to read this pitiful, mewling excuse for failure as only a true Progressive can put it. The seeds for failure were sewn in the start-up of the venture. Pass the Kleenex. (Hint: He blames OBAMA!!)

It would seem that when anyone dances with the devil he ends up with ashes in the end. Most of us already knew this. Only a useful idiot or true believer would dream of a different result. Obama is strutting across the stage in a large way. Does anyone imagine that God is not in control? He lets men rise to great heights all thru history. Each generation there is an anti christ in waiting because Satan does not know when the time for the End will be. Obama is a good model for how such a person will appeal to huge masses. Watch and wait and pray for lost souls. That is our mission.

Advertisers?
But, profit is evil. Should they not have been giving away their product for free?
Nobody was getting paid there, right? It should all be free. They did not build it. Are they not working for "the revolution?"
Where is other peoples´ money when you need it?

Stuff like this make me think more and more that the election was fixed.
Conservatives were riled up more than anytime in my lifetime.
Liberals were holding their heads low a week before the election.
The only way Obama won was by keeping it close and cheating the rest of the way.
They call it their "ground game". I call it cheating and counting votes that are not there.

Progressives have destroyed many nations throughout history and are working hard on doing the same with the US. Destroying a tiny radio station should be no prob.

Sounds like they´re feeling a little USED, doesn´t it?
Went "all the way", then never even got a phone call.

So what are they mad about? That no one wanted to hear what they had to say?

Another one bites the dust. A radio program with no fun, no facts and slogans galore has a very small audience.

I vote for #2 as post of the day!

Typical liberal/progressive/Democrat rant....no one listened, no one cared about our station, no one supported us (couldn´t make it on your own) and we failed BUT it is someone else´s fault for our failure.

See a pattern here!

Those who support talk radio by advertising are
the small businesses.

Those who support Barry S. by voting for him are all takers-food stamps, welfare, etc. These are the ones listening to liberal talk radio.

But since they can´t SUPPORT the station, failure becomes obvious.

Liberal talk radio fails to make the connection:

Wishing and hoping for success is seldom as successful as WORKING for success !

Perhaps an audit would be in order. Funny how their lease expired and their advertisers deserted after the election.

If they had ratings, they would have had advertisers. Thats how it works. The reason the advertisers didn´t return your calls is you weren´t worth the time, or they had be put out of business by Obama´s economy. The fact that gospel music would out draw liberal talks pretty much says it all.

Success killed this radio station. The gimmees don´t want to hear about anything unless you´re giving. Free phones, foodstamps, tuition loans paid then they´ll listen, otherwise see you in 4 years.

I like mountain music,
good ole mountain music,
played by a real hillbilly band.

Now THAT was a whiny self-serving denial of reality. Radio is a cutthroat business. If you can´t sell air time you are dead. This loser whines about everybody from the president on down not supporting his programming. Even his long time advertisers have abandoned the station. The programs must really really bite!
But no its "We´re being silenced" like its some vast conspiracy!

You would think that with all of this free money floating around they could get a government grant or some spare welfare money or some union advertising - it´s a tradegy, I tell you!
