In Vegas, they switched him from 3-6 to 9-12PM and the radio station has suffered big time for the mistake.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16211149561616238625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12897315.post-40097100562873405572011-04-27T09:09:55.072-05:002011-04-27T09:09:55.072-05:00My problem with Beck/Boeck was the conspiracy/end-...My problem with Beck/Boeck was the conspiracy/end-of-the-world orientation.<br /><br />Some of his stuff was very good, indeed. The rest was apocalyptic, like WorldNetDaily. Catholics have a term for that: "dispensationalist."

Happened here in Madistan a few months ago when the otherwise all-lefty station Boeck was on, got tired of taking flack about the "inappropriateness" of Boeck's show on the station.<br /><br />I'm pals with a guy who's prolly the #1 news-talk guru in the country (Holland Cooke) and he says Boeck has lost about a third of his radio affiliates in the past five months. In the bigger markets (50 and above) too many advertisers won't go near Boeck, fearing the loose-cannon syndrome will scatter grapeshot that'll hurt their business.<br /><br />Unlike Rush, Boeck can't seem to reinvent himself and survive the attrition.Tim Morrisseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00457723301178870851noreply@blogger.com
