Susan lguisinger 143220 I guisinger Charles Clay 43123 dietz 43004 the ONLY reason i started listening to am radio was air america. now that it Thon talk about listeners not liking change (hummm, there wouldn't be any station worries about the "change" in the red to blue state status would lthe freedom to-choose... key word Freedom. alberto (viqlietta 143068 IWe don't need another consewative outlet. James John 78219 Agnes Anderson 43068 Why should we the people be denied access to the truth or at least an alternative point of view. Why would any City allow their radio stations to t politically one-sided. We should have a choice. Lori Hartman 43223 We need an alternative opinion / voice to the right-wing neo conservative talk radio shows that bombard our Columbus air waves. Air America gave Nicole Skjordal 43110 I want my friggin radio talk shows back! What, because we want to be educated on what's really happening in OUR world today. you have to take it away from us? This is totally unjustified. I will pay to listen to them again before I listen to clear channel's repetitive brain washing garbage. Give us our station back. you have all the other ones, leave our one station alone! Karolyn Beebe 53704 now that the Mic 92.1 stayed on here in Madison I happily chose to spend my money with its advertisers. Hope everyone can hear AAR, Stephani, etc on their radios where ever they qo in this nation - SOON! 161 of 171 AM radio (which are broadcast 24/7/36),Democracy is not served when only one view/opinion is broadcast to the public. The public should have a choice as to what it can listens to since it owns the airwaves. Please right, it will be more 162of 171 ~ cBride 43232 tov 3202 Icannot believe that our ONE progressive talk radio source in Central Ohio has been taken away from us so abrubtly. Then---rudely replaced with sport commentary and the conservative convolutions already broadcast on another local station. While conservatives are now begging for a bi-partisan D government, they still continue to subject the people to their prescribed propaganda that puts every democratically-minded (and I'm talking about true democracy here, not just party affi1iation)at a loss for real truths about our government. Who has replaced our cherished Air America Broadcast? The same woman who urged people to call and jam up a phone line set up to promote and protect our voting rights has replaced the people who have actually made a difference in media today. Should Ijust move to another country now, or will the American people stand up for their rights to receive fair media freely? Even people in North Vietnam know not to believe what could not believe what I read in the Columbus Dispatch when I got back. B 0 163 of 171 was when he realized that the Fairness Doctrine, which required all a outlets to provide balanced viewpoints, was the only thing standing ay. See: "The Fairness Doctrine How We Lost it, and Why We t Back" http://www.commondreams.org/views05/0212-03.htm The is that it will be hard for progressives to break into AM talk radio 3221 3015 The media needs to be fair and balanced. We have all the right wing talk radio we could ever want. How about the other side ... the facts ... the truth. It is criminal that Clear Channel can own just about even/ radio station in town and is able to control what we hear. How many listenters can a 1,000 watt radio station possibly have and how much higher in the ratings can they expect to go. We need an alternative voice to Rush and Hannity and Beck. We need AI, Stephanie, Randi, Ed, and the rest of the progressive lineuo. We need our Droaressive talk station back! 4720 This is an outrage. I am boycotting all Clear Channel stations and advertising until our progressive talk comes back. There needs to be balance on the airwaves. I think we can have 1left wing radio station to combat the 50 riqht winq stations around the area. _-__?775 3206 Progressive radio is the only reason, outside of NPR, that I ever use my radio, instead of the tape and CD players. A different format will just send me to the library for more books on taw. 3004 NULL 3021 I'm extremely upset about the change. I will not listen to 1230 or whatever the new call numbers again. I loved Stephanie Miller and believe that this is I politically motivated. effrey IGranby 3703 Only people can turn this around and never doubt that it can and will be Munson 3064 Idone. 3214 !please brinq back the real voice of the people. i 6003 NULL 3209 I am disgusted! The only reason progressive radio is being taken off the air is because it is really working and getting the truth out! I belive that it did help change this past election and they do not want it to happen again. If they really wanted more people to listen they would advertise! I will not listen to 1230 AM until the truth and Droqressive talk is restored! 3206 Progressive radio and NPR are just about all I listen to on my radio. I guess I can live with it but I am disappointed by the loss of this alternative voice. And I wonder if Clear Channel knows just how many people are truly irritated by Rush et al. Michael 3215 3215 I am appalled by the conservatives fear of the power of progressive radio. I will listen to nothinq but WCBE and oldies from now on. 164of 171 finally a station I could relate to, that shared my views and ideas, and I know I am far from alone in this sentiment. I am extremely disappointed that the station has changed formats and will not be listening to WTPG-1230am The previous format on 1230 AM allowed for discource that is sorely needed and desperately missed by me and many of my friends and les with its iron hand, the . I will not listen to eryday. I feel as if you don't care what politics. radio is supposed to be there arol ianne 48124 If you don't have airwaves freed to express government concers, it will not be long til who ever holds the aiwaves switch finds his own family, & childten cought in this control trap. The right wing is soooo mean spirited, they come out saying how god people they are, & I found meaness, lies & ahlf truths once I researched their "spinn". If the boys are fighting for freedom in other lands, Mr. Radio... have some guts your self and open up the airwaves to fredom of thinking.. If you were not so threatened you would not try to control.. This world is all we've got & we're all in it together, & have right to hear all views ... Time to shoot with courage, if you want "somebody else" kids to tight for you to have a radio station ... Be fair to the boys they want their home land free to hear other view. Is is about keeping the playing field uninformed so right wing can take advantage of people?? aqainst the forces of iqnorance. John Hove 01778 and we will support itWe need want Progressive Talk Radio RUSSELL BRADLEY 91763 I'm from northern KY with a Sister in Dayton, Nieces in Dublin & Columbus, childhood friends in Ironton, Portsmouth, South Point, Miami, Cincin and Zanesville. I spend 3 vacations a year in some part of Ohio. Everyone I know is a progressive and deserves to hear the progressive message. How do we challenqe the station's license is the information we should be John Kelley 43015 I was a loyal listener for 2 years, I was so happy we finally had a voice in Ohio, and so disappointed it has gone. My friends and I all listened. Didn't clear channel see the election results? Jim Smith 43230 Listened every day. Other than NPR nothing worth listening to now 166of 171 I I - ~ . .-__-___ ___.__ __ ,aig olderby the most important thing. If they give this channel alittle more time what normally might be expected it is sure to catch on. It is fighting a r up hill battle than when "right-wing" talk radio started. And I'm sure ome didn't think it would be what it is today. The general public "on Id replace it with yet another conservative program; while blaming the lichael smith )an Jaquez ary Wedlund d away. Still, the number did not lie, and the money barons ponied UI good witch. Then the unthinkable happened: AN ELECTION! The ey lords lost, in spite of direct appeals to Jesus and the saints of rance. Down came the ONE voice on OUR wavelengths. We all have ald Reagan to thank for this, because during King Reagan's reign, the ctrine of equal voice on radio was shot down by big money. Now our or ce seems to be Rush Lirnbaugh or the felon, Gee Gordan. You know, tofus have figured this out and go to the BBC and John Stewart for ndamental requirement for democracy is an informed an Ian Katona .. I .ric (Plinke Wojtowycz 3215 If you can stand Bill OReilly, Rush Limbaugh and Michael Savage, you can stand Randi Rhodes, Stephanie Miller, and Mike Malloy. If you can stand "Brian and the Judge" you can Alex Bennett.
