CC throws in the towel on N/T in the RGV

S

Smittian

KVNS-1700 AM has dumped News/Talk in favor of "La Preciosa" and is now simulcasting KUNO-Corpus Christi.

KVNS never really threatened KURV's stranglehold on N/T in deep South Texas. KURV is one of the top N/T stations in Texas, has it's own news department, 5 hours of local News Blocks, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, the Dallas Cowboys & Texas A&M football. CC couldn't compete.
 
in fact i think clear channel probably hire's cheap programmers in smaller towns and then change formats or rebroadcast programs from another station, when things don't go thier way.
 
Indeed, I find this very troubling.

I did very much enjoy two programs on this station: One, Glenn Beck, because I truly found his views on the world and his humor intriguing and a wonderful listen in the mornings, and two, Michael Savage, because although he is a bit too much of a conservative extremist for my tastes I always found his show to be endlessly entertaining.

Sadly, it could be a long time before these shows return to the area.

I'm not a fan of Mexican music, so I'm quite disappointed in the format change.
