New message up at NovaM

[SharonRB]

As many of us already knew, NovaM is gone, but there's a new entity. Looks like our own Ben Burch is staying on with the new company.




Welcome To On Second Thought Radio Network

Hi!

On Second Thought Radio Network has been formed to bring you Nancy Skinner, Dr. Mike Newcomb, Mike Malloy and more to come!

Please continue to drop by as we change the site over and grow this NEW LIBERAL NETWORK which is based, appropriately, in Phoenix.

We will be honoring all existing subscriptions from Nova M, and the old web addresses will continue to work along with our NEW address which is;

www.onsecondthought.net

An official press release detailing our future plans will be forthcoming shortly. If you have any comments or suggestions please forward them to;

Ben Burch
Chief Technical Officer
On Second Thought Radio Network
"Talk Radio for independent minds"

1. From Ben Burch, no less

A familiar name to many a DUer (in fact, a former DUer)

[Hawkeye-X]

2. Yep, he needs to be reinstated here.

So he can keep us informed...

[hlthe2b]

3. Yes... unfortunately, I guess he has to request...

Otherwise, I'm sure many of us would, on his behalf...

[SharonRB]

6. Ben got the old concrete pizza?

I had no idea. No wonder I haven't seen him around lately. Anyone know what happened?

7. For us newbies...who is Ben Burch?

Sorry to hear that he was mistreated by DU but...?:shrug:

8. I think there is always "cause" in even long term- member 'TStonings'....

We all get overheated sometimes and unfortunately, if we don't "step away" in time, there is lasting damage.

That being said, there are plenty of great former DUers who make their way back with appeal to the admins. I keep hoping Ben will do so.

About Ben Burch: Among other things, he has long been an advocate and freely archived progressive radio--long before most shows podcasted. He is owner/proprietor of the following website, which is worth a look.

10. Thanks.

I know the White Rose Society and visited often when Mike Malloy was archived there. I will definitely resubscribe to the new On Second Thought.

9. I don't remember the details....

Just an overly heated debate cycle, I guess...Sometimes it is hard to step away, when we should...

4. I canceled my NovaM subscription this morning...

...before I saw this announcement. The new address still has a link to "Listen to Randi Rhodes Live"...their subscription page offers new NovaM videos. I think I will wait until they get all of their ducks in a row before I resubscribe.

5. To Ben!

To "On Second Thought"!

I'll be continuing my subscription (fortunately, it does not run out until March).

11. Malloy says it's none of our business

I haven't yet listened to last night's show, but on Tuesday night he distanced himself from Randi and said that anything he's seen online on any board is total speculation and not even close to the truth. If Drobny was hospitalized and Nova changed its name, I don't understand how he can say this is no one's business and he won't discuss it. Very strange.

12. He's probably legally prohibited from saying anything substantial.

If that's the case, I think he'd just not comment at all, but I think it's eating at him that he can't rant more about the situation, so he slips up and makes these non-comment comments.

"On Second Thought" has to be about the worst name ever for anything.

What would be wrong with Phoenix Radio, or Firebird Media, or XYZ Broadcasting.... something? anything?
