Clear Channel destroyed radio? Yep, author says

Clear Channel loaded the virtual gun, many small companies like BAS broadcasting pulled the trigger!

Please Rick Bell...what the heck are you saying...you've made some silly comments in the past about BAS but this one tops them all....I agree BAS does not belong in the same conversation as Clear Channel or Cumulus...my goodness they own 8 stations and live in Fremont, Ohio...a far cry from owning 1200 or even 268 stations...the rest of the bloggers are right on target....and it is sad!
However lifetime broadcasters who have made this our career have to dig in...we small broadcasters can make a difference, with a good attitude. If you think your day will suck...it will! If you think radio sucks..it will...and it you think that...please get out...you're ruining it for the rest of us who still love it!

I can sympathize with Rick-Because of Clear Channel, and the satellite spewers, there are NO opportunities in Northern Ohio, or pretty much anywhere, now. Sometimes I am asked, "Why have you been a board-op for the last few years?", and I just think, "DUH! Where am I going to GO!?" I really don't want to have to go to, say, Bozeman, Montana just to get a gig.

So, Sunset-radio CAN "suck" for those of us that aren't fortunate enough to be in YOUR shoes. To us, this business looks more like the "Brittanic" than the "Titanic"-The Brittanic was TORPEDOED...
