although I doubt that the %$^%#$ comment from me will move them to return back to progressive talk radio. I live in Eugene, and have been missing progressive radio since we lost our local station a couple years ago, and have been barely able to eek out their signal, through the adjacent local station bellowing of Hannity and Huckabee, during my breaks and lunch. So then I purchased a Chase wi-fi streaming radio so I could listen at work.
The Eugene station was where I first heard from the likes of Thom Hartman, Randi Rhodes and Ed Schulz. It sure is getting tough out there. How can we get up the buck$ to run our own radio stations when all the big money subsidization comes from BIG money who doesn't want our side heard, and will black ball advertisers who might support progressive radio? Thank god for Democracy Now.
