This is a little too “vast right-wing conspiracy” for most Republicans isn’t it?
Luckily Myth will be a distant memory by the time the sale goes through.
Yeah, but if Mitt fires Rush, how much is his property worth then? More likely Mitt will remind Rush how much money Rush is making for him.
This is a dishonest, deceptive smear. Romney is no longer associated with Bain Capital; he would have nothing to do with this deal. The author is either an idiot or a liar.
Romney is no longer associated with Bain. He left the firm in 2001.
I certainly hope that when Bain buys Clear Channel, they change a lot of their policies to make radio more heterogeneous around the country.
For example, bring back DJs for local markets, not just a “morning crew” that works 4 or 5 metro areas and try to appear to be local. Then give station managers the authority to come up with their own play lists, instead of a generic one created by the corporate marketing department.
Local programming can be good, too. Community involvement with radio stations adds a lot of color and character. And stations should be free to purchase indy programming that would help them to stand out in the market.
Syndicated shows such as Dr. Demento and the Hour of Slack, and other FM favorites can boost off-prime ratings far better than just a music-commercial-music format. And AM could be revitalized with a wide array of syndicated shows.
No wonder Rush has been kind to Romney!
Since you support Huck, I can understand why you hate Rush.
I am not an avid Romney person, but, he looks a lot better than Huck.
