Is Imus returning to Raleigh radio next week?!?!
- Thread starter strata
- Start date
It would be a big ratings booster for "The Fan"... Maybe ???
I don't think there are any syndication plans until the first of the year, with the exception of Boston. There's a Blog - http://imustruth.typepad.com/ that's been tracking Imus. There was first a Days Without Imus Clock, it's been replaced by a Countdown Clock.

I highly doubt the controversial Imus will end up on the Fan. I actually enjoy the sports talk during morning drive.
ABC Radio Networks will nationally sydnicate the radio show starting this Monday,
December 3rd, in addition if you have "Dish Network" or "DirecTV", the cable
network "RFD-TV" will simulcast his program on television beginning the same
day.
As far as the return of Don Imus to a station in the Raleigh/Durham market,
I don't think "99.9 The Fan" will pick this up, it doesn't fit their format, if anyone
brings this morning show back on here, it will be "850, The Buzz", where it was
on before the incident in April.

I'm from the Providence board.It was announced that Imus will air on WSKO-AM 790 in Providence begining Tommarrow Dec 3 rd.WTKK 96.9 the FM talker in Boston was the first to sign the I-Man.Like everything else in Providence we are never to far behind Boston.I believe a really big push to syndicate Imus will happen in January with Boston and Providence leading the pack.There may be a couple of other stations that may start with his debut next week that I am unaware of.
Hopefully, who ever puts IMUS on will wait a few weeks. I've been watching and listening to the stream - IT IS PAINFUL.
I guess just because you are in the #1 Market does not mean you are any better than the #217 Market. The technical issues are making me want go up there and FIX IT. IMUS actually threatened to walk over to the radio studios because they had no Studio-Control Room intercom.
They did this for years at MSNBC and still had issues. It's disappointing to think that people calling themselves "engineers" are responsible for this train wreck.
