There is NOT a DC area radio station called Obama 1260. The talk station included liberal radio programs by Ed Schultz, Rachel Maddow and Ron Reagan. Not the past tense, because apparently the station's ratings have TANKED.
I cannot believe this is the first I'm hearing of this. From Hot Air.
The very name “Obama 1260″ should have embarrassed the syndicated hosts who appeared on it. It paints them as nothing more than apologists for a man who hadn’t yet worked a single day in executive office. The name strongly suggests an overt campaign on behalf of Obama, and after the election, an effort to propagandize on his behalf. Would a station branding itself on Obamamania dare to criticize the One and ruin its own brand?
So no one, before the election, had a problem with a radio station calling itself Obama 1260?
Ok, cooling a bit down, and I see that it was a gimmick that had a conservative counterpoint. McCain 570 was also in the mix.
But, shouldn't the "gimmick" have ended the day of the election? State radio and all that is a creepy thing. It's pathetic that Obama 1270 is going away because it failed.
