Seattle Times Mariners beat writer Geoff Baker blogs that starting pitcher Erik Bedard went on the air with a Philadelphia ESPN radio affiliate as trade rumors swirl around his possible dealing to the Phillies. Not sure how great an interview it was since Bedard has a penchant for one word answers to questions, but apparently he may be warming to the idea of heading out of Seattle. If Philly is in
A Flint rhythm and blues radio station was left singing the blues this week when a thief made off with the station's van and its stock of compact discs and sound equipment. But you have to wonder what the thief was thinking. The 1993 Pontiac Transport has WOWE on both sides and the back door, as well logos with the station's 98.9 FM dial position on the side windows. Not exactly a low profile targ
Reeves v. C.H. Robinson Worldwide, decided yesterday by the 11th Circuit, asked the following question:
Whether daily exposure to language and radio programming that are particularly offensive to women but not targeted at the plaintiff are sufficient to satisfy the "based on" and "severe or pervasive" elements of a hostile work environment claim.
The plaintiff was the only woman who worked in her area. On a daily basis, her male co-workers used a barrage of the foulest and most sexist language one could conjure. They also listened to a morning radio show
that was played every morning on the stereo in the office. Discussions of the following material on the show offended her: (1) breast size of female celebrities and Playboy Playmates; (2) sexual arousal and women's nipples as indica

Media Matters is now running a campaign to get Rush Limbaugh taken off the air. This is getting really scary since Hillary Clinton started Media Matters. If you go to their website, and type in your State, they will display the phone number of the President of your local radio station. Evidently, they want their Stalinist supporters, who never listen to his show, to demand he be fired.So, like we do with all Liberal grassroots campaigns on this blog, we let them do the work for us. I'm sure some poor intern spent hours creating this database to facilitate this garbage. Nevertheless, that makes our plan much better.Here is what we need you to do: 1) Click the link below; 2) find the email AND phone number of your local Radio President who broadcasts Rush Limbaugh; 5) Call the number and say you support Rush's right to speak on the airways and YOUR first Amendment Right to hear him; and 6) Copy the generic email below and send it to the President's email.Dear President X:I staunc

Imus and CBS Radio “have mutually agreed to settle claims that each had against the other regarding the Imus radio program on CBS,” the network said in a statement Tuesday.

A radio station Bobby Brown's $19,000 bail and he walked out of jail today after spending three nights behind bars for failure to pay child support.
The King of R&B agreed to appear on the radio station for a week in exchange for the bail money. Bobby's attorney Phaedra Parks in Atlanta discussed the child support agreement:
"Although this agreement was put in place when he was Bobby Brown the star, this agreement is being enforced when he is not always able to find work," Parks told The Associated Press. "He hasn't made an album in quite some years."

An undocumented Woman Sues Chicago Radio Station Over Unrewarded Corvette
Thursday, January 25, 2007
CHICAGO — A 22-year-old woman is suing a Chicago Spanish-language radio station over allegations that they refuse to give her the car she won in a contest because she's undocumented.
Maribel Nava Alvarez won the Corvette on July 4, 2005, in a raffle sponsored by 107.9 FM La Ley.
In a lawsuit naming both the radio station and its parent company, Spanish Broadcasting System, Alvarez says La Ley withheld the car when officials found out she's undocumented.
She is suing for breach of contract and emotional distress.
In a written statement, La Ley said that it is legally required to get a valid Social Security number or tax identification number from anyone who wins prizes worth more than $500.
