How many progressive talk stations remain?

It was reported here that WPEK "The Revolution" (daytime only) Asheville NC changed to ESPN and added a simulcast partner with a 24-hour signal and a translator.

The progressive talk format continues on an HD channel and its translator. Asheville seems to have more translators than it has actual stations.
 
With the continuing decline of progressive show content, how many progressive talk stations remain in the US?

KGOE-AM Eureka
WPEK-AM Ashville
WKVT-AM+FM TX Brattleboro
...
?


I know I am late on this, and it is over a year later since you started this topic WCPT is still around, and plus they are the only radio station on the radio that still airs the Bill Press Show even through his show hours are cut from 3 hours to 2 hours. But in January of last year terrestrial syndication of his show ended expect for WCPT which I am not sure how they managed to work at being the only terrestrial radio station that still carries his show. But if anybody has been wondering about his show, he still does it, it is now on the The Young Turks Network, and he still does his show from 7:00-9:00 AM weekday mornings, or whomever that fills in for him, does it from his Washington DC studios. But you can find his show on Free Speech his first hour airs live on Free Speech TV, you can also find his show on his Youtube channel, and you can also find his full show up Free Speech's website viva his YouTube channel.
 
In May WKVT AM Brattleboro VT changed to a simulcast of country WINQ Keene NH (though morning talk show remains?) and is now WINQ (AM)
 
Not for long. One week ago, the station was sold to EMF, and will flip to one of their Christian music formats

The sale was discussed here:

Isn't that supposed to be the FM station as I believe aren't they supposed to stay still on their main channel on the AM side? As the FM side is a simulcast pretty much of the programs on the AM side.
