Pass It On
From future radio star Julia on The American Street
You folks may have heard that there is a new Liberal radio network going on the air tomorrow at noon with (I love this) The O’Franken Factor.
Here’s how you listen.
New York WLIB – 1190 AM
Los Angeles KBLA – 1580 AM
Chicago WNTD – 950 AM
Portland, OR KPOJ – 620 AM
Inland Empire, CA KCAA – 1050 AM
XM Satellite – Radio Channel 167
San Francisco Coming Soon
You can also get the feed at their website.
FYI: I spent some time yesterday talking to Janeane Garofalo and her cohost, Sam Seder during a runthrough of their show, the Majority Report, and I hear (to my utter amazement) that I’m going to be back at some point when they go on the air.
Bloggers you will definitely be hearing from on the Majority Report: Atrios, Kos and the editor of Liberal Oasis.
Word is that all three of them give really good radio.
