What happened with Hannity's radio contracts? - Page 1

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What happened with Hannity's radio contracts? (Page 1 of 2)

Posted: 1/2/2014 11:40:31 AM EDT

Suddenly he's no longer on Clear Channel (and the biggest radio station here in the DFW area), and I understand he also lost stations across the country. Did he have a falling out with Clear Channel?

We get Michael Savage here unless we change stations, and while I tire of Hannity at times, Savage is just annoying with his yankee drone.

He got dumped here, too, in favor of a new local show by Ben Shapiro. I can't wait.

I'm sure that somehow, it's all Obama's fault, just like everything else in the world.

He is too much of a republican party cheerleader. Although lately less so. He used to be local here before he hit the big time.

I can't stand listening to him. All he does is high shrill voice against liberals, etc. He has this weird shrill voice that drives me crazy.

My dad was complaining over the holidays he used to have Hannity on one channel, and a good show on another channel, but now he has Hannity on two channels.

I tried listening to him back in 2007 and he did nothing but toe the Republican line. He's not quite as bad about that now, but I just think he's fake and I still can't stand listening to him. He never lets anyone talk, just cuts them off and talks over them.

Hannity comes on and I cannot change the station fast enough. Give me Mark Levin any day.

I believe he got a bigger contract that stipulated that his shows

would be broadcast live and not delayed. That caused a move

to different channels.

I listen to Shnitt on 970 here and he has to move to a different

station due to this. Hannity will be in Shnitt's old slot on 970

They're persecuting him because he's a *slamming fist on desk* REAGAN CONSERVATIVE.

Like he even knows what that means.

I don't know. If anything he's losing support from the big government Republicans because of his recent questioning of some of their methods. You don't see all the old time McCains, Grahams etc......on his shows like a couple of years ago. He does a lot more holding their feet to the fire than he used to do.

Hey OP, he is now on 660 am KSKY in DFW 1400-1700

We're getting Michael Savage as his replacement in the Chicago area.

I've always wondered why his lead in song is a song about domestic violence...followed by Toby Keith's Obama loving ass.

I can't stand that asshole, nothing gets me changing the channel faster than him. He is like the reverse image of a liberal shrieking about every little bullshit out of context crap, fuck him.

I don't really care for Hannity, but I absolutely hate listening to Savage. I'd rather listen to nothing or bullshit pop music than Savage.

Hannity starts to question the Rs and all the sudden fewer stations, moved time slots. Prolly not a coincident. He was only useful as a R shill.

IIRC correctly, his last radio contract through ABC (?) was 5 years at $5M a year, so that was a big deal back then.

Perhaps too big of a deal?

I've listened to Schnitt for a good 3-4 years here in Miami. He's bounced around time-wise, but he's a big AR15/CCW guy who can be a bit long winded, but I like him.

Damn, someone else has asked those same questions? And I thought I was the only one.

Martina McBride (who sounds like she oughta be out in the lobby selling t-shirts at a Garth Brooks concert and doing karaoke at cheap hotel nightclubs...but I digress) singing about how her old man got drunk and smacker her around so she murdered him, burned his house down, and orphaned her own children to the county home while she went to prison??? I'm not condoning domestic or spousal abuse, man against woman OR woman against man.

THEN Toby Keith? Really...really?

Hell, I'm from Oklahoma and even I won't stand up for that sorry turncoat kenyan felator.

Felony property damage and spousal murder are staples of female country. Carrie Underwood, The Band Perry, Dixie Chicks, the list goes on and on. The double standard pisses me off.

Not to mention the lyrics, if you ignore the true meaning of the song.

"Let the Right be wrong." Really?!?!?
