That's a nice twist. After dealing with right-wing talk for years 
where a loss of signal from Limbaugh meant some vicious left-wing 
conspiracy was about to invade, it's good to hear the same stupidity 
from the left. When Bob Grant was on the WOR Radio Network I'd get 
calls about being a Commie pinko because one of my affiliates lost 
the signal. We were trying to silence him. It didn't occur to them 
that what talk hosts say they've said hundreds of times before. Year 
after year. If you miss it this time, wait a few minutes. They'll say 
it again.

When many music station listeners still believe we play records on 
record changers you can't blame talk listeners when they see 
conspiracy comin' down the track.
