Reply #57: I Know Several Broadcast Pros Who Got Shunned...And More [View All]

But let's let things go as they must and will.

Some may know I've posted on this topic and got flamed for trying to explain some of the things I was hearing about AAR and why they were having difficulties.

It's a shame since there are some highly talented people...not just air talent, but tech, sales, marketing and other broadcast pros who would love a chance to do radio for a positive cause. Unfortunately the troubles go deeper than even Mr. James relates, and that, sadly, has gotten worse, not better.

There's a definite need not for just a "liberal" talk network, but a more light-hearted, open-mineded and lively one than the right wing crap that's out there...and there's a ton of talent "on the beach"...many talkers who have years of experience but have been "Clear Channeled" out.

I've always suggested developing one strong syndicated show...just like Limbaugh did and others will follow.

Sorry to see this venture go badly since so many had high hopes on it. These are tough times to start any business venture, but also they're also a great time for the right people.

Cheers!
