Did the fat lady sing?

[gordon]

Well I'm listening to 990, and Fox is on. It's Wednesday so I assume that it's finally happened. I checked out their website, but didn't find anything different. Maybe they had a graphic of a sunk ship, but my speech software didn't pick it up or something like that.

KFCD has been running Fox Sports from 9 AM to Noon for some time now. Begining yesterday, they added a second hour of the Jim Rome show, pushing Mike Fisher and Pete Stien back an hour to 1 and 4 PM respectively.

The fat lady sang a LONG time ago…we’re just waiting for TAPS to play. Can't they just put that poor station out of it's misery...before the FCC does. Are board ops still getting paid or have they stopped that again? Also, word is that the only two people to support Dave Schum blindly thru all of this are now leaving for a "3 month hiatus." Apparently, even Chevis and Joe are tired of all the antics at 990. But they're optimistic...they think that the station will be around in 3 months.

No, no, no.

It's taps, then the fat lady has to sing.

That's FCC regulation 451.23467890120876238

You're telling me they PAID board ops to listen to all that wonderful programming?

You're kidding me.

Or a hiatal hernia ....

Eternal optimists.

Hope springs eternal.

And all that there ...

Have they been forced out of the building yet, or did the court give them more than a month to make good or get out?

They should maybe buy one of those old portables the DISD is getting rid of and put that by the tower and broadcast from a shed in Farmersville.

The majority of the programming is Fox Sports now, so they might as well make it Fox 24/7 and just put it on auto-pilot.

The old 1190 is the new 990 ...
