Air America and Progressive Radio Leaving San Diego, Replaced By Sports
2007-11-12
At long last, the often-rumored, often-discussed, often-delayed new sports station in San Diego is ready to go on the air.

Barring anything unforeseen, the plan is for XTRA Sports 1360 to debut at 3 p.m. Monday with none other than Lee Hamilton welcoming “you the fan” to KLSD-AM, which has been carrying a progressive-talk format. “I'm fired up,” Hamilton said yesterday afternoon, less than 100 hours from his return to afternoon drive time in San Diego after an absence of nearly five years. “It should have never, ever happened and now we're back.

“We invented it and we're taking it back.”

#14  Progressive(ly) headed for the scrap heap. Fortunately they are in charge of a radio program, and not America.

#8  Finding a still functioning Air America station is like finding those Japanese soldiers who ran around the islands in the fifties that didn't know the war was over...

#6  elarson - lol! Funny it is "being replaced by a worn-out sports host who got kicked off the air five years ago."

Their new slogan KLSD - doing our part to fill the air waves with mind numbing nothingness.

Perfect call letters for 'Progressive' talk radio. Shame they lost them.

#4  actually, the "Hacksaw" Lee Hamilton has been on the air continuously on KOGO - I don't care much for him. Air America stickers on cars here in San Diego clearly identify a loser, and I make it a point not to let them merge in my lane on the road. Lets em revel in their inner rage. Just trying to help

:-)

#2  The really funny thing is the incredibly weak programming that Air America is being replaced by. This one is being replaced by a worn-out sports host who got kicked off the air five years ago.
