[BC] Failed networks

[Broadcast List USER]

I listened to Fred Thompson filling in For Lars Larson last week.  It  
wasn't pretty.  He is a really smart guy, but the formatics were  
lacking.  THAT can be fixed pretty easily.

The "CONVERSATION" was great, but the format was dreadful.  I imagine  
some "producer" type person will easily fix this problem.

West Woo Done has been pretty amazed at the interest in the show.   
They were initially worried about the switch.  They are not worried  
today (though radio networks are doing nearly as badly as radio  
groups).  He replaces Sean Hannity, and stations have shown amazing  
interest over Hannity.

Just like the LIVE Hannity show, I'm doubtful that Thompson will air  
live everywhere.
