This is also being reported by the Buffalo Business News, saying Principal is headed by "longtime radio insider" Otto Miller.

Google shows Otto Miller heads the People's Broadcasting Network, aka WDJZ in Connecticut.

WDJZ's website features a mission statement including this description of their programming philosophy - (caps theirs): "THE LINEUP OF STARS ON A PEOPLES BROADCAST NETWORK ARE HAND-SELECTED PEOPLE OF GOD ----THOSE CHOSEN MEN AND WOMEN AND CHILDREN OF THE LIGHT THAT HAVE A SPECIAL MESSAGE OF THE LORD TO SHARE WITH US. THE PEOPLES BROADCAST NETWORK STATIONS HAVE NO DJ'S, NO PROGRAM DIRECTORS WHO ARE TRAINED TO FIGURE OUT WHICH FORM OF ENTERTAINMENT CAN BEST DISTRACT THE WORLD WHILE DEAFENING OUR EARS TO THE DIRECTION OF THE LORD!"
