Re: NPR Senior Editor Blasts Lack of ‘Viewpoint Diversity’ After Leftward Lurch: ‘Open-Minded Spirit No Longer Exists’

I completely agree with this article. I used to be one of the 26% and while I found they skewed left, I thought they made an attempt to just present the facts with as little bias as possible. I noticed them getting increasingly liberal beginning in the run up to the 2016 election. I went from a fre...

Does anyone really believe that WLAV will ever make the top five once again
and with a 5% share or better?
As long as they keep playing the exact same playlist they've had for the last 30 years featuring the same lame overplayed butt rock - no, they will continue to drop into irrelevancy.

Re: Catholic Radio in West Michigan

I really wish Catholic radio offered more in terms of variety than "blah blah blah blah Abortion is evil blah blah blah blah Evil LGBTQ+ agenda blah blah blah blah Pope Francis is too woke" etc. Unfortunately EWTN embraces Church Lady radio and too often gets stuck in culture war mode. Church Ladie...

Re: Whitecaps baseball back on the airwaves

So, that means the audience draw will be consistent with 1340's other programming. :) :rollin :rollin Well hold on, if they normally have 4 listeners, and Whitecaps brings in 4 more - you've doubled the audience! "Mr Advertiser, we double our listeners during Whitecaps broadcasts. Hurry up and sign...

Re: Whitecaps baseball back on the airwaves

So, two questions remain: why the move back to terrestrial radio, and any other stations carrying the games? (leading into commercial breaks between innings, the announcers still refer to it as the "Whitecaps Baseball Network"). Probably because it's still easier to convince local businesses to adv...

It has to be brokered. I can't think of a minor league team that isn't, unless maybe if it airs on a non-com.
Agreed, they have to be buying the time. Only a deviant would listen to minor league baseball on the radio.

Re: Beyonce and Country Music Part 2

Here's what I don't get. Beyonce records a country record and the world goes ape shit. Meanwhile, some fat fuck named Jellyroll crosses over from rap and he's the second coming.

Fascinating.
Show some respect. He was the guy from that one show everyone watched. He was also in that movie a few years back starring what's his name that was really funny.
You really don't understand how this whole RIP thing works...
I won't dispute that.
