[...] Hot Air reports that Obama 1260, a liberal radio station in DC, is changing its tune. Apparently the idea of a number of liberal commentators mixed with so-called journalists and analysts passing themselves off as a serious talk radio station which happens to be named after an elected politician was a little too 1984 even for the denizens of the beltway.

I think what DeathToCapitalistPigs is saying is: If a lefty radio station falls but nobody’s listening, does it make a sound?

The move by Redskins owner Dan Snyder, who purchased the station, WWRC, and others in Washington last summer, leaves the city without a liberal radio outlet. Program Director Greg Tantum says he thought the station could work because of enthusiasm over Obama, but that ratings collapsed to a level that could not be measured after the election.

What would liberal radio actually talk about for 3 hours? They are so busy trying to hide their actual agenda. I suppose Bill Ayers could lecture us on how best to stomp on and burn the American flag… or Rev. Wright could enlighten us on how best to play the victim card.

When Socialist radio fails utterly it usually makes the sound of one hand clapping.

Occasionally accompanied by the sound of Gloria Wise Children’s Foundation’s looted cash rapidly burning.

Counting the seconds until Obambi starts to parrot the old Clintonian “for the children” dodge…

Reading DeathToMediaHacks’s posts are about as interesting as listening to YoMama 1260 would be.

Maybe they should have gone for broke and played of of YoMama’s hopey changy speeches, his multiple daily press conferences, etc. Or have the Goracle do a show about how Earth is going to be 800 degrees like Venus is.

Conservative radio does have a high news content and is FUNNY and ENTERTAINING.

[...] The cult of personality appears to have ebbed a bit since Barack Obama had to begin governing two weeks ago. The Washington DC radio station calling itself Obama 1260 and featuring liberal talk stalwarts Bill Press, Ed Schultz, and Stephanie Miller has given up the ghost already, a victim of undetectable ratings.

Obama Radio crashes and burns in DC

Calm down everybody... The fix-all "Fairness Doctrine" will move the bankrupted Democrat whores in with conservative talk-show radio. Problem fixed, complements of senator Charles "Chuckie Cheese" Schumer (D-NY).

I love this story (Reminds me of the “great work of modern art” ...) The best part about it is it was in NYC at MOMA. How much more highbrow elitist-like is that?

My people are interesting.

Of course they are. Comedy gold.

Can we also claim PBS because Jim Lehrer is *amazing*. As is Frontline.

Of course you can. I INSIST.
