		<description>Rhodes does have a great face for radio--she is sure to bounce back.

J-dog, you should invite her to be panelist on OTB Radio--although she might be nervous about being heard by an audience that exceeds Air America&#039;s.</description>

		<description>She&#039;s suppsoed to be working at the station on 960 in SanFran, effective now.

If I recall correctly... and without looking it up, that&#039;s a non-directional, running 5000watts from a shoreline site. Since the station is Clear Channel woned, that likely means it&#039;s a shared site, too, which means power losses in the combiner. All of which means that she&#039;s got coverage as far north as about Ukiah, and perhaps 30 miles or so south, and as far east as Sacremento, if you&#039;ve got a good radio. Most stations out there have one leg in the salt water. Gives them great ground conductivity, but it also means that most of their watts are wasted out over the ocean.

But as to what is really going on here... that&#039;s simple; It&#039;s OK on the left to send such attacks against Republicans... but to pick on democrats in the same way, is verbotten. IN a far left station ticking off republicans is par for the course. But with a primary running as close to 50.50 as no matter, doing what she did amounts to pissing off about half your listenership... something Err America can ill aford to do.



And FH, being in Sanfran is as close to a local college radio station as no matter, trust me on this one.</description>

		<description>She might be able to get a job at a local college radio station. At least then she&#039;d reach a larger audience.</description>
