Help block Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck

There have been numerous posts here suggesting that Limbaugh's days at Cumulus are finished.. Lets not cheer just yet... I have been told by people in a position to know that Limbaugh, Beck and Hannity may be about to move to WOR in New York which now has a new management..

I think we should prepare for this possibility and do what we can to cause the station to fail if that information should prove to be true....

He won't acknowledge you - it was his big idea to add Beck to Dish for $5.00 per month

But I'm sure they also know that not only is WOR under new management but it was recently purchased by Clear Channel. CC also owns Premier Networks who just happen to syndicate Limbaugh and Hannity.


On August 13, 2012, it was announced that WOR was to be purchased by Clear Channel Communications, pending FCC approval. A local marketing agreement began on August 15, 2012. On December 20, 2012, the day Clear Channel officially took ownership of the station. The Dr. Browne Show, The Gov. David Patterson Show, and Mike Huckabee were removed from the WOR program schedule.



All this latest jibber jabber about Limbaugh being toast because Cumulus Media is dumping him is just CYA by the current CEO of Cumulus. He's the one on the hot seat.

As an interesting side note Bain Capital is involved with both Cumulus and Clear Channel.
