On Alternative Music radio station: "christain" ad. Should I freak out?
On KTCL-93.3 (a clear-channel station) they had a "christian" ad telling people to call on Jesus whenever they felt tempted by the devil. The station did have a disclaimer ("The following does not necessarily represent the views of this radio station" blah blah blah).

Just when I was beginning to listen to commercial radio again! Now we need an alternative to Alternative radio. Oh well, back to CD's. Thank God I have Green Day's CD. :)

1. With digital audio players, why does anyone need the radio?

6. Umm...
Are you guys watching that acoustic Alanis Morrisette thing I saw on VH1 last night???

Anyway, I think that irony is best when accidental.

7. Or back to 760.
Although I hate finding out Clear Channel is making money off the ads.

8. If you want music
Listen to Radio 1190 CU's station. I never switch to FM anymore.

The radio conglomeration got me hating clearchannel, KTCL used to kick ass now it's just a clearing house for Fred Durst.

12. This is a great station.
Who'd have thought AM would become the place for "outlaw" music. That was supposed to be FM's role. The world has flipped upside down!

10. I'm Very Angry @ CC Denver - Fired
Oz at KBCO couple of weeks ago. The old KTCL would never have taken any Jesus ads. Clear Channel are money whores and will.

11. That's not good. KBCO plays a wide variety of music.
They'll all wonder why people stopped listening to music on the radio and CC will be the main reason.
