Update on Buffalo Libtalk Wars

Both Buffalo Libtalkers have published their schedules online. Both take approaches different from most other Libtalk outlets. One is Air America-free with a local host (although broadcasting from California) up against Franken. The other is part Air America with heavy doses of Pacifica programs and shows from local activists. It will be interesting to see how this shakes out.

WHLD "Voice of Reason"

6am - 9am AM Drivetime with Ray Marks and Alex Blair(Local/RadioFreeBuffalo)
9am - 10am Democracy Now! (Pacifica)
10am - 12pm The Newsroom (Local/alt press)
12pm - 3pm The Al Franken Show (Air America)
3pm - 7pm The Randi Rhodes Show (Air America)
7pm - 8pm Free Speech Radio News/Mosaic (Pacifica)
8pm - 10pm Flashpoints (Pacifica)
10pm - 1am Mike Malloy (Air America)

Contrary to earlier reports, the schedule does not include a local PM drive program. Instead "The Newsroom" airs late mornings. It will be interesting to see how this schedule with a large dose of Pacifica programming plays on a commercial Libtalk station.

WWKB 1520 "Buffalo's Left Channel"

6am - 9am Bill Press (Jones/Center for American Progress)
9am - 12pm Stephanie Miller (Jones/WYD)
12pm - 3pm Leslie Marshall (Local)
3pm - 7pm Ed Schultz (Jones/P1)
7pm - 10pm Stephanie Miller (Repeat)
10pm - 1am Lionel (WOR Network)
1am - 6am Joey Reynolds (WOR Network)

IMHO Re-running a 10 hour old Stephanie Miller program might not be KB's best move for early evening.
