Move On Gets Involved After Demise of KPOJ

Lib talk radio station KPOJ flipped formats to sports last Friday and the Libs have been spitting tacks ever since. Efforts to get the lib format back on  have been getting lots of help from fellow libs such as Blue Oregon’s Kari Chisolm. Now he’s asked for and gotten help from the MoveOn.Commies.

Here’s their latest:
Dear Portland MoveOn member,

On November 9, Clear Channel, the corporate owners of KPOJ, changed formats from progressive talk to sports. This was done without warning and without explanation.

KPOJ was the very first Air America outlet, launched the national radio show of Thom Hartmann, and for years has been one of the brightest stars in the constellation of progressive talk stations in America.

We believe that this decision by Clear Channel management can be reversed. We can—and will—demonstrate that progressive talk radio in Portland has a dedicated listener base.



We’ve noticed you’re out there listening and calling. We know it’s our responsibility to give you the best in local talk radio. We strive to do that everyday. So to KPOJ listeners: Welcome to AM 860 KPAM. We don’t bite, we’re not nuts, and we actually know what’s going on.

Tell ’em where you saw it. Http://www.victoriataft.com
