WWRC (Washington DC Progressive Radio) Dumps Imus.
Replaces with Rachel Maddow. He was not compatible with their format.

2. Isn't it wonderful?
I heard about it last week. It's about time that addle-brained idiot Imus was put out to pasture.

3. I thought it was great too!
I'm sick of listening to Imus try to be political, but ending up just rambling on about nothing and not making any sense.

Good Riddance, Imus.

9. I agree
He is a progressive who can attract groups to our message who wouldn't be attracted by other progressvie talkers.

Its just a case being able to produce messages that will resonate with each demographic. He can take care of working class Democrats in ways that Franken and Rhodes cant.

Althogh I perfer Al Franken and Randi Rhodes, I do listen to him. The sports commentary isnt a favorate but its good for attracting and building his audience.

I wish that WWRC would put on a local talker in the morning, but I think that will come with time.

Only downside to the station is that its owned by Clear Channel.

11. WWRC is NOT owned by Clear Channel
Clear Channel sold WWRC (and WTEM and WTNT) to Dan Snyder's Red Zebra Broadcasting last summer. And Al Franken hasn't had a radio show for a couple of years.

12. Welcome to DU! By the way, this thread is three years old, and things
have changed a bit since this was originally posted.

10. Best News Next to Diebold Out-of-Here.
It's about time. Imus in the morning is too much for my stomach to handle.
