KLSD Dumped from AM 1360 by October 15th

Rumors that Clear Channel San Diego was going to drop KLSD progressive talk format from AM 1360 apparently are coming true. SDRadio.net is reporting today that Scott Tempesta (aka Scooter) who is the producer of the Stacy Taylor morning show was fired on Friday.[Link] All indications are “AM 1360 is preparing to shift programming, most likely Monday, Oct. 15. A new set of call letters are expected to used.“[Link]

Despite the best efforts of activists to show their continued support for KLSD, it appears that AM 1360 will become an all sports station within the next couple of weeks. As for the progressive talk format and Air America radio here in San Diego, it doesn’t appear that right now it is going to move to another station.

So much for Being a "Compassionate Conservative"

President Bush this morning is his weekly radio address vowed to veto a bill to expand health insurance coverage for children.[Link]

WTF Mr President! We can spend $1 billion every three days in Iraq, but we can’t spend $35 billion over 5 years to cover 6.6 million children. Come on Mr. President, try for once to be the compassionate conservative you claim to be!
