The regressives and corporatists are forcing AAR out of a number of markets.
Atlanta recently lost AAR and WTAM 1100 AM (another Clear Channel property in CLE OH)
replaced Springer w/ some former sports sideline reporter who thinks he's a political expert.
Phoenix lost their AAR station, but, through grassroots activism
was able to get another station.

3. We just lost our station in Atlanta (still have Franken).

It just sickens me that the left can't find an audience for talk radio. The right has no less than five talk radio stations in Atlanta. Yes, five fucking stations.

We have none.

6. AAR rating is very good and that is why, they want to get rid of it.

RW want to make sure, left don't have voice over the air wave. It has nothing to do with, not have enough listeners.

4. Is AAR in trouble there?

Has the station announced plans to dump AAR?

Liberal radio host seeks help

Liberal talk has not been a hit here since WCKY launched the format 18 months ago with Springer's national talk show. WCKY ranks No. 18 among stations here, with a 0.9 audience share for winter quarter, down from a 1.3 in summer and fall. Schultz's show, with a 1.0 audience share, outperforms the station average. More people listened to oldies on the station in 2004 before the format switched.

Cunningham's station, WLW-AM, is No. 1 with an 8.9 share. Limbaugh's station, WKRC-AM, is No. 12 with a 3.4 share.

Clear Channel could drop the liberal talk format if the WCKY audience doesn't grow, says Darryl Parks, Clear Channel's AM operations director here.

"We're not happy with the (ratings) results. We're always looking for a way to improve our product (stations)," Parks says. "This isn't about any political ideology. This is all about ratings and revenues."
