Re: Clear Channel Banned Songs (TFN)

[Norm Rosen <inorm99@earthlink.net>]

If there was ever a group that Can be trusted to do the WRONG thing in any
situation it is ClearChannel.

Given their history of headline grabbing promotions ( "The Running of The Bull
Dykes") , and(The killing of a Wild Boar on the air),

The killing off of less profitable formats in some cities etc. It's all about
the money.

I see this move as another opportunistic self-serving move only to retain
their clients.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, however let's really see it for
what it really is

A Kinder, gentler, caring radio corporation, possibly?

That falls into the same oxymoronic category as Jumbo Shrimp.
