Conservative Melanie Morgan Cut from KSFO Radio.

Posted on 03/03/2008 3:52:52 PM PST by BoneHead

Renowned radio personality and national conservative leader, Melanie Morgan, delivered her final broadcast on talk radio powerhouse KSFO 560 AM today – Monday, March 3, 2008.

The owner of KSFO radio, Citadel Broadcasting, decided not to renew Morgan’s contract as part of the company’s announced across-the-board financial cost cutting.

Melanie Morgan has been a fixture on KSFO for the past 14 years, enjoying a run from 1994-2008 that far exceeded industry standards for longevity. During that time, Morgan emerged as one of the nation’s most dynamic conservative activists, using the radio airwaves to motivate listeners who shared her passion to take action and fight for causes important to them.

Wow. She was good, too.

I thought that she was married to the station manager or something.

Never heard her. But I’m sure, if she’s good, she will turn up somewhere. Maybe somewhere better.

Citadel/ABC radio has had a bad year and the bloodletting is all over the country.

It’s in San Francisco and Melanie spearheaded the Gray Davis recall drive. Ultimately that’s how Arnold came to power.

I was reading elsewhere that the “corporate suits” have essentially milked talk radio dry with their short-sightedness and greed. Radio stations all over are for sale at bargain prices from what I hear. “Corporatism” is not free-market entrpreneurial capitalism, but some sort of genetically defective bastard child. They don’t know how to do anything useful with any business except wring every last dime out of a good thing, ruin it and sell off the assets. They had already destroyed music radio. This was just the next logical step in their inept predation. We’ll see much more of it, I think.

Mel was my favorite when I lived in the BA.
I suspect KSFO is being driven out of business by the wacko left.

She seems like a nice lady, and I admire her energy, but I have always thought that she comes across as an intellectual lightweight. That said, she seems to have really built a name for herself over the last five years or so, and I would have expected KSFO to lay off Lee Rodgers instead of her. Then again, he seems to work part time, so maybe he’s alot cheaper.

Her husband is general manager of KSFO and the liberal KGO. The stations are in the very liberal SF bay area. She went through a contract dispute a few years ago and was off the air for a few weeks. Eventually they settled. Since the station has been sold, this may be different this time around. She is a real fire brand and a die hard conservative. I will miss her.
