Yet another reason to love Air America:  Stephanie Miller and Jim Ward are coming to the desert in support of Democrats of the Desert’s Annual Awards Dinner:

The money we raise supports Democratic candidates in the CA-45th Congressional district, the 80th and 64th California Assembly Districts, and the California 37th Senate District.  We’re making Democrats cool here, at last, as Julie Bornstein recently exhorted us to do.   KPTR is beloved of all Democrats out here, and they’re giving our sponsors one heck of a deal.  Tell your friends, and come out to the Palm Springs area this April to party with us.  Stephanie Miller!

Rumors that Clear Channel San Diego was going to drop KLSD progressive talk format from AM 1360 apparently are coming true. SDRadio.net is reporting today that Scott Tempesta (aka Scooter) who is the producer of the Stacy Taylor morning show was fired on Friday.[Link] All indications are “AM 1360 is preparing to shift programming, most likely Monday, Oct. 15. A new set of call letters are expected to used.“[Link]

Despite the best efforts of activists to show their continued support for KLSD, it appears that AM 1360 will become an all sports station within the next couple of weeks. As for the progressive talk format and Air America radio here in San Diego, it doesn't appear that right now it is going to move to another station.
