New York City Losing Its Last Commercial Progressive Talk Radio Station
When WWRL 1600 AM turns into a Spanish-language music and talk radio station next week, New York City will lose its only remaining commercial progressive talk radio outlet.
Station employees first learned about the news in mid-December, with low advertising revenues blamed for the change, according to the New York Amsterdam News.
“It was a business decision,” John Campanario, host of the LGBT talk forum Out And About and a digital marketing executive for the station, told GBM News. "The antics of people like [right-wing talk show hosts] Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity have put advertisers off talk radio, across the spectrum. This is happening nationally.”
Old Pudfark sez: " Yup it is happening nationally....and it's happening here, so say's a recent lamented soul.. "
Let's have a moment of silence....

"Progressives" are closed minded, they never listen.

they not only listen, but they also read newspapers, you dolt. As opposed to Conservatives, they have little tolerance for someone telling them what to think.

Though, they generally hire it or cajole it out....no personal involvement and deniability thingy...historically speaking.
