THANK GOD there's a news-talk ombudsman at KGO Radio --sort of--John Rothmann is on the radio discussing the latest shenanigans emanating from the White House although this is far more serious and hardly a 'nothing burger.'It is good, refreshing, entertaining newstalk and a far cry from the BS junk food put forth and followed to the book by confirmed Cumulus scientologist, Ethan Bear-man! who is ordered and acquiesces in talking about mundane bullshit.
Thankfully, Rothmann doesn't have to adhere by the bullshit Mike Anthony "7-F" handbook that has contempt for smart people and thinks most adults that still want to exercise the brain are dumb and watch only Wheel of Fortune.
Rothmann should be on every day now. Every day. Anthony, KGO's PD, is simply over his head; knowing this schmuck, he'd have had some dimwit talk about the history of doughnuts during Watergate.
Hey Mike, your "7-F" baloney hasn't moved KGO's needle and you're the laughingstock of the few people inside the building that care about important stuff and don't believe in mundane bullshit.
It's amazing that Cumulus (Cluelessness) can squander away the number one talk show format station in a major US market, and turn it into garbage that only a few people listen to. Bring on John Rothmann, and additional intelligent hosts now! What are the Cumulus suits waiting for, bankruptcy?
ReplyDeleteMaybe San Francisco can put this on the next ballot. Vote YES if you want KGO to go back to talk radio with local talent 24/7. Or NO just shut it down and put the station out of its misery. I vote YES...
ReplyDeleteThe studio looks like my den with the Santa Rosa Plaza outside. Perfect place for the King of Nepotism.
DeleteAnd then Rothmann was out Wednesday and Langdon (sp) was in as well as Thursday. John said he was all week covering for copeland. WAS a relief until yesterday. Then more of the same ignorance.
ReplyDeletePut Rothmann on every day.
DeleteLets hold off on Bearman's "What's your favorite ice cream?" and Copeland's incessant "Whitey keeping the black man down." topics.
The day Maureen was in for Brian (I think Tuesday) John Rothmann was on for Ronn 10 a.m to noon. Whenever he is on I tried to listen, and often listen to the podcast later. He is the best.
DeleteJust checked June's bay area radio ratings and KGO has been flat for months at a 2.3 in 15th place. Right-wing-nut radio KSFO has floundered, going down each month for 4 months at a 1.8 rating, in 22nd place. A & G is dragging KGO down. Shows me Con talk isn't so hot in these times of Trump. Hard to spin his bullshit into a positive. Put more libs on like John and Pat during the week and KGO may have a chance to survive.
ReplyDeleteCumulus has its own Scientologists? If that's true, and Bay Radio needs rescuing, maybe we should sick Tom Cruise on Anthony, the Tricky Dickeys, BEAR-man, and all the other numbskulls that have ruined the Terrestrial Radio part of the Bay. I don't think he, John Travolta, and the rest would tolerate any of this incompetence within their own Scientology for a millisecond. Let's fly in Travolta to rescue the Bay, then have him and Cruise invade Atlanta HQ and embarrass them into permanent bankruptcy. They would have eternal thanks from everyone all over the country who have been Cumulated.
ReplyDeleteKGO=Kan't Go On..
ReplyDeleteKGO= ''cagey Oh!''. CBS= ''See? B.S.!''.
ReplyDeleteBooing-man is a Scientologist? That explains a lot. What an ass. When did the space ship send him back to us mortals to endure and WHY?
