KNEW Brand change

Tried to post this earlier, I think the FOX News brand is something a station has to pick up if they want to carry Josh Gibson. Also, has anyone else had problems with the boards lately, there have been some topics and posts that have simply disappeared.
 
That's pretty unlikely. The Gibson people had been pestering KNEW for years to pick him up. Since Clear Channel owns Premiere, the syndicators of Glenn Beck, that just seems way off. It's more likely they did it because they are under the delusion that it will get more conservatives to tune in due to the Fox brand. With only one semi-local show, Armstrong & Getty out of Sacramento, it probably won't move the needle a bit to have Fox in their slogan and on the website.
 
Who was worst Conservative Talk show Host in the bay area?

LOL...Savage will NOT be on KTRB for a long, long time. He's wired for self-destruction. If you haven't worked with him, then you just don't understand. He...is...INSANE...and is incapable of being happy. I've seen management start out as big boosters for him only to want to just be rid of him within 6 months. He drains people out.

I had heard that the late J. Paul Emerson was the most bigoted conservative talk show host in San Francisco when he did mornings on KSFO-560 back in 1995, but I don't think so since he was only on the air on KSFO for a couple of months. Michael Savage has been on the air longer though on different stations over the years. I vote for Savage over Emerson for worst.

Josh Gibson? So does that mean KNEW will now be the flagship station of the Homestead Grays?

(That's okay -- I know you actually meant Bob Gibson, not Josh.)

That's like asking which is worse? The Gas Chamber or the Electric Chair. ;D
 
I thought we were talking about Debbie Gibson. (Though I understand she prefers "Deborah" these days.)
 
Six on a Gibson joke is bad luck.

Travis, why are you so certain that the Fox radio guy on KNEW is Josh Gibson? Inside info, perhaps?

I remember seeing an ad here on RI for him.I don't have inside connections anywhere.

I saw the ad, too. It said John Gibson, not Josh. Perhaps Josh is his nickname?
