WZON Christmas Music

Is talk radio in trouble?  I dunno.  I don't listen to any of it! Might be why I'm still able to smile.  Maybe.  One of King's stations is switching for the Christmas season from progressive (liberal) talk radio to Christmas music and the promise of a "BIG surprise" after Christmas.

What's the big surprise?

Stephen King-Owned WZLO and WZON, Bangor Progressive Talk Simulcast Splits. “The Pulse” website states the stations have split their simulcast of progressive talk and are featuring Christmas music on the FM signal with a “BIG surprise” the station will reveal after Christmas. The stations have been a simulcast for the past 2 ½ years – first as a sports talk station, then as the progressive talk outlet. The FM side had been playing a triple A format prior to the simulcast. WZON at 620 AM continues to air a progressive talk format featuring a local morning show with Don Cookson, WYD Media’s Stephanie Miller, Ed Schultz, Premiere Networks’ Randi Rhodes, Thom Hartmann, Cox Media’s Clark Howard and Leslie Marshall.
