Driving my better half to work this morning and I noticed 1090 is no longer carrying the Rich Eisen show and is now all ESPN Radio through mornings and middays. Given that both XEPRS and KLAA are likely content to carry ESPN outside of their afternoon local shows, would any other station clear RE? I doubt it. FOX Sports already declared their allegiance to Cowherd in that time slot a few years back. Curious if whoever syndicates RE makes a push to get him clearance again in a major market like LA.
Slightly tangential, but I find it funny that 1090 has still retained their “anti-sports-talk-radio-establishment” imaging long after affiliating with arguably that biggest sports monolith there is, ESPN (and now carrying a large part of their schedule!)
