The return of former WVOM morning show host Charlie Horn

[Jeremy Mixer <mixer@zoso.net>]

Hi all-

I don't beleive anyone has posted this, but some of you familiar with the
Bangor Market might find this interesting.

Charlie Horn, former co-host of WVOM's morning show, has returned, only
this time, it's not to radio. After getting laid  off from WVOM several
months ago from Clear CHannel due to consolidation, Horn started hosting a
new show on WCKD-30 (WVII-7's sister station) called "So Goes the Nation"
which is basically a radio show on television featuring local guests,
local callers, and a different guest host every week. This week's guest
host is Dan Cashman, PD at WBZN Z-107 as well as the former host of the
recently cancelled "Nite Show" also shown on WCKD-30.

While I was dissappointed with the cancellation of "The Nite Show" I've
got to give WCKD credit for reviving Charlie Horn, there is not enough
local talk programs or local programming period anymore, and it is good to
see a local show once again, and on top of that, it's great to see it on
television rather tehn radio. Their web site is at www.sogoesthenation.com
and soon will offer streaming audio, the show airs weekday mornings from 6
until 9.

It would be interesting to hear what other people within WCKD's viewing
range think of the show, unfortunately WCKD is only carried by the cable
systems within about 5-10 miles outwside of Bangor, maybe 20 in some
areas, so hopefully more will start to pick the station up. The signal is
rather weak compared to even that of the other UHF station, WBGR-33. So
we'll see, but I for one would like to see the show stick around.
