Is the "GasBag Junkie" (Limbaugh) GONE from KSTP?
I tuned in a couple of times (1500AM) to see what he had to say about Gore and the revival of the Democratic Party.

Rush is not there.
Instead, Ron Rosenbaum is in Rush"s old time slot.
I hope this is permanent.
Does anyone know?

The Democratic Party is a BIG TENT, but there is NO ROOM for those
who advance the agenda of THE RICH (Corporate Owners) at the EXPENSE of LABOR and the POOR.

1. The pig is playing golf in the Bob Hope Classic
I hope he breaks his ankle in a gopher hole. We have a stand in on the talk station here. BTW I recently found AirAmerica on the internet (thru DU) and have nothing but praise for the programing. So refreshing and enlightening.

4. With his disability?
What a trooper! Anything for charity!

I bet his caddy has to carry his clubs and a briefcase of "medications".

5. I hear that it's permanent but not by KSTP's choice
Edited on Thu Jan-19-06 03:51 PM by demjuli
I think Hannity is gone now too. And Tommy Mischke has moved to the 5:30 - 7:30 time slot.

They also have a new local guy in the morning drive time slot--I would assume that he leans to the right but haven't heard him talk about politics at all the few times I've listened on my way to work. In fact he was talking one morning about how hideous Walmart buildings are and how they should have to comply with community building standards so perhaps change is afoot at KSTP.

7. KSTP distacing itself from the Right
I read an article where they said that they want to be more ideologically balanced now. I'll believe it when I see it.

9. Yes he did
Clear Channel is now moving to the "wasteland" of FM stations for their "talk" shows.

11. He went to KKK radio on the FM dial
I so want someone to substitute "K" for the "TL" on those billboards.

12. Robbinsdale post office had Rush on.
A couple of days after New Year's, I went to the post office to return a gift via mail. There were a half-dozen or so people in line ahead of me, and while we waited, we could hear Rush loud and clear from a radio in the back area. I complained to the clerk and asked her to pass along my complaint. When I got home, I emailed a complaint to the post office web site. About a week later, I received an email from the post office saying I'd be hearing from the Robbinsdale p.o. manager. Sure enough, two days later he called and left a message saying he was sorry I was offended by the program and the radio station has now been tuned to something else. Here is what I find mind-boggling. The manager said the station changed and they didn't notice it! My understanding is that the station changed from jazz to talk radio. No one noticed?!
