The Business TalkRadio Network and Lifestyle TalkRadio Network will not be airing any shows in the future that are distributed to either of the two satellite radio companies. Wah wah wah.
Currently, of the more than 60 shows that air on the two networks, only four have such arrangements. Oh shucks.
"Those of us in the radio industry have sat back long enough and allowed satellite radio to be perceived as more of a force than it really is. The time has come for there to be more of a concerted effort on the part of all us, particularly the NAB and RAB," said Jeff Weber, executive vice-president of the Business TalkRadio Network and the Lifestyle TalkRadio Network.
"We applaud radio executives like Ed Christian of Saga who have the courage to stand up in opposition to what is obviously competition to terrestrial radio."
Heh. I thought Satellite Radio was just a fad?
