KBZZ-1270 The Buzz Reno made a stupid decision in replacing Howard Stern with Laura Ingraham

I know that in the past, that if you were a radio station, and you wanted Howard Stern, It would cost you an arm and a leg to get his show plus the risk of being fined by the FCC. That's why there weren't more radio stations carrying Stern. Which leads me to this question? Why did KBZZ-1270 The Buzz chose to pick up "The Laura Ingraham Show" as Howard's replacement? I'm sure it has saved Americom some money. In fact there should be more money in their budget now that they don't have Howard Stern.While the vast majority of Former Stern stations picked up Adam Carolla, KBZZ picks up-yawn-Laura Ingraham.They could have picked up "Rob,Arnie and Dawn", since at that time they were available but has since been picked up by KOZZ. Other shows they could have picked up includes "Mancow", "Mark And Brian", "Bob Rivers Twisted Radio" or even started their own local Talk Show. Is "Bob And Tom" still on in Reno? If not, they could have picked up that show. Hell, they could have picked up "Don Imus", who is not good, but better than "Laura Ingraham"? Now KBZZ is no better than any other AM Talk Station. And there is NO Extreme Talk Station ala "FREE FM" in Reno's Future!
