WLS CUTS ANOTHER HOUR OF COAST TO COAST.

I noticed last night that Coast To Coast only runs from Midnight- 2AM now. The Midnight Radio Network now airs
from 2-4AM, and The Wall Street Journal This Morning airs from 4-5AM. I thought the reason they moved Hannity
up by an hour was to run 3 hours of C2C. I know that it is cheaper to run TMRN because it is syndicated by Citadel,
while C2C is syndicated by Premiere. Do you think WLS wants to get rid of it? If they were to do that, what other
station would pick it up?

I don't know of another station that would pick it up. Certainly not WIND.
 
WLS is no longer an option for hearing Coast To Coast in my opinion. At least there are other stations that carry the show. They're cutting out the very meat of the show and often the last 2 hours are the best.

According to the Sun Times this morning many WLS listeners are unhappy over the shorter hours of "Coast to Coast"

All five of them?
 
Question: Did 'LS cut ANOTHER hour of C2C?

I got in my car at 2:50 AM to go to work this morning and the MRN was on. Since it started on 'LS, it has started at 3:00 AM.

I'm hopeful it has added another hour, since I'm not a big fan of C2C.

Yes, they did, MRN now runs from 2AM- 4AM.

They might as well not even run it anymore. I have a feeling that's around the corner.
 
:mad: I just found out about this change last night. I am shocked WLS would even do that. I expect people to be very upset at this change! I know I am! :-/
 
Anymore it's just the same old types of people who stammer and stutter their way and make it up as they go when being interviewed. And of course, the usual alien abduction stuff. After this post I reckon some of the guests will come up with names and conversations they had with the aliens who abducted them. For years it has been all "I was abducted, and this is what I saw."; and then there is the "higher self" crap of late.

Are you actually going to miss that?

Will they make the truckers show an all night thing?

maybe WLS can get back the 5am farm report.

Ahh yes, Chuck Bill & Captain Stubby.
Don't forget Larry Lujack with Animal stories ;D

If my mind serves me correctly, Larry Lujack said his "Animal Stories" were an off-shoot of the Farm Report.

That's correct. He wrote about it in his book Superjock.
