(Detroit Metro Times) 910AM Superstation, a Detroit-area Black talk radio station for nearly a decade, is going conservative.

The white, wealthy owner of the station, Kevin Adell, abruptly pulled the plug on Black talk radio earlier this month and will soon replace it with programming promoting right-wing outrage.

Adell plans to blanket the Detroit area with more than two dozen billboards advertising his new lineup of conservative voices. The first billboard, featuring The Glenn Beck Program and The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, was erected Thursday along I-275 near Ecorse Road in Van Buren Township near the Detroit Metropolitan Airport.

Listen to radio anymore.

You get the most crappy programming in the world. Lies and conspiracies and more lies.

Podcasts are much more interesting and you can weed out most of the lies.

Boring but important. Helluva motto. I live in Kansas, tune into WWNO NPR in New Orleans (cause I love the place) and posting on a Michigan thread. Try that in 1953.
