What's Up with Country Radio..do you remember the Americans, where did they go?

Country stations quit playing the Chicks in 2003 after singer Natalie Maines told a London audience: "Just so you know, we're ashamed the president of the United States is from Texas. Almost overnight, Maines became a lightning rod in the debate over the Iraq war, with conservatives blasting her for criticizing the president, especially while on foreign soil.

Now, I know the only folks who listen to modern country radio are from Fresno or Nebraska, and are a little retarded..but I say "GET OVER IT"! The chicks got the right to say whatever they want! Remember "Ruby, Don't Take your Love to Town" by Kenny Rogers (written by Mel Tillis). It was a clever anti-war song. Every station played it..there was no segregation of music then. Now, there is. The heartland of America has lost its soul! Rural, conservative America has become paranoid and un-american! Would they play Sonny's latest hit ??

Dr. Sonny says: BURN YOUR BIBLES AND START ANEW!!

They are outraged," said Tony Lama, program director for KXNP in North Platte, Neb. "This is rural, conservative America. They are just disgusted."

Santa Barbara Channels 17 & 21

When you want to see raw, imperfect, creative, real TV, these channels can't be beat. Talk shows like Ernie Soloman or music showcases like "Musical Cafe" with Chrissy Strassburg are examples of local folks sharing their talents. Anybody can have a platform there.

Now, when Travis Armstrong of the News-Press starts to question the right for local commercial-free TV to exist, there can only be one reason. That reason is the channels are showing video of the demonstrations against Wendy! The News-Press would like nothing more than to censor this station. Travis actually requested people email him with any dirt on the channels to bolster his case! This is what he has been reduced to: Wendy's loyal omega lapdog, on his back, yelping submissively. The fact remains, he doesn't have a case. You can't silence people simply because you don't like what they say or do. Libertarians know better, fascists do not!

The decline of the News-Press is relevant in that the rise of other media have rendered it all but irrelevant! People are turning to blogs and websites for some info and fun. This is obviously a problem to the News-Press management..they are being exposed and outsmarted by bloggers. Get out of the darkness and come to the light..Wendy, EXPOSE YOURSELF!
