Question about a "new" Progressive radio network

[BeachBuckeye]

What would you have to say about a new Progressive network with the following lineup:
All Eastern Standard Time

6-9am Bill Press
9-noon Stephanie Miller
noon-3 Thom Hartmann
3-7pm Guy James
7-10pm Ed Schultz
10 1am Mike Malloy or Alan Colmes
1-4am Peter Werbe
4-6am Doug Stephan

I'd like to know your take on this group. Now, be nice:)

[ewagner]

1. That's a pretty good lineup

Stephanie is a BIG winner IMHO....

[salvorhardin]

2. Peter Werbe 1am-4am

It'd be a great spot for him.

Wouldn't Doug Stephan be better in the 6am-9am slot?

I don't care for Alan Colmes at all but Mike Malloy is perfect.


Is this something that is likely to happen?

5. Just a trial balloon

Changes may be made. Just need your opinions on this.

[salvorhardin]

7. That's cool

The more voices out there the better.

[wryter2000]

3. Hmmm

It would be good, but it wouldn't take me away from AAR. I'd love it if that meant Randi would be live on my AAR radio station so I could listen to her live in my backyard.

[acmejack]

4. It would be terrific!

What a line up! Where Thom goes, my ears follow. but that guy on after him, whats his name...

9. dont compete with AAR

dont we waste enough energy/money?

dont we have limited strength?

it is a good lineup as long as we dont get into stupid turf battles like some unions do.

[BeachBuckeye]

14. So AAR is there and everyone else should be quiet?

Any energy expended getting out our message is not wasted.

[kentuck]

20. I'd say let the market decide...

:) Competition would be good for liberal radio...So I tend to agree with the idea...

6. I'd like that lineup.

Aren't Stephanie Miller and Ed Schultz "Jones radio network"programs?

I kinda like the mix of AAR and Jones Radio Network shows that we get on our "progressive talk radio station" here in Chapel Hill,NC.


9am-12pm- Stephanie Miller (Jones)
12-3pm- Al Franken (AAR)
3-6- Ed Schultz (Jones)
6-8- local talk/sports/other (local)
8-10- Majority Report (AAR)
10-11- repeat of local talk/other
11-1am- Mike Malloy (I think- not sure about start/ending times here) (AAR)

8. Sounds great

Got something up your sleeve?

[BeachBuckeye]

10. Possibly

Testing the waters.

[hedda_foil]

11. Looks great!

forget about Colmes, though!

[BeachBuckeye]

12. kick n/t

[proud patriot]

13. I just wish there were hours in the day to hear all the Liberals

:-)

[DougieZero]

15. No Mike Malloy Please!

Young Turks Show instead...

I'm in the minority on DU, but Malloy is nuts.

[BeachBuckeye]

16. evening kick n/t

[stlsaxman]

17. Place Young Turks in Malloy/Colmes slot and this would be a great line-up!

and get it in the St. Louis market! please?!?!?!?

To hell w/ Colmes.

Why is Malloy on your list? Is he leaving AAR?

[ray of light]

18. um...Randi is missing!

And Randi is great!

[BeachBuckeye]

19. morning kick n/t

[bbgrunt]

21. More Molloy!!!!

[LuCifer]

22. Neil Rogers - 10a to 2p! NeilRogers.com!

Can't NOBODY rip the reichwing like Uncle Neil!!!!!!!!!

Lu

[evilqueen]

23. hmmm...

It'd be nice if you had another woman on there (in addition). I like Laura Flanders.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

24. Mike Malloy or Alan Colmes?

How did Colmes get in there?

I've heard that Guy James fella is a DAMN FINE talk show host, so I support HIS being on the list...

:evilgrin:

...and Press had an excellent but sadly overlooked book (mainly because it came out late in the election year):

Bush Must Go: The Top Ten Reasons Why George Bush Doesn't Deserve a Second Term

So, Guy, this sounds like a pretty solid roster for you to be a part of. I just take exception to Colmes' willingness to line up for his nightly beating from Sean Hannity (and yeah, you asked us to be nice, so I'll leave it at that).
