All Access and other industry websites say an activist group headed by liberal talk show host Mike Newcomb has leased KPHX and that the station will start airing a local show with Newcomb and syndicated programming from Air America Radio starting Monday. The group, Save Air America Phoenix, has been getting donations from former listeners of another station which recently discontinued liberal talk after being sold to a religious broadcaster. Today they received major financial backing from "rich Democrat" Sheldon Drobny. Standards music programming is scheduled to end Sunday with the new progressive talk format starting Monday.
