Guest My life has improved since the talk-show format is gone. It was an addiction, like listening to a train wreck.

Jan. 18, 2013, 3:49 a.m. GMT

Guest Doubt the last guy ever listened. Randi Rhodes was only one of several hosts. The station gave liberal Oregon a single outlet to hear our own veiws represented. Nothing but Rush Limbaugh and Rush Limbaugh light anymore. Am buying some CDs and hoping someone with money will invest in this venue. ...

Dec. 24, 2012, 10:45 p.m. GMT

Guest This station was balls ugly to listen to, I hope there can be a station that fosters true intellectual debate. Rhodes voice sounds like smoke infused lasagna scabs slapping sweat. grosss....

Dec. 23, 2012, 11:51 p.m. GMT

Guest Tuned in. Heard sports talk that that sounded like teenage jock inanity. So much for KPOJ.

Dec. 22, 2012, 8:19 p.m. GMT

Guest Guest - get a life & stop watch Bill O and his lies. Better yet, join the Saudi's who finance Fox News & it's Clearchannel 'associates'. Amazing you can even type.

Dec. 19, 2012, 1:29 a.m. GMT

Guest FU - 90% is right-wing blabber.

Dec. 19, 2012, 1:27 a.m. GMT

Guest the station served its purpose when bush was president but the last 4 years all they do is rant and rave about how great obama is ,and randy OMG that womans voice is so annoying it would drive ya to drinkin

Dec. 7, 2012, 3:50 a.m. GMT

Guest see you next Tuesday, Randy Rhodes......

Dec. 6, 2012, 3:36 a.m. GMT

Guest Liberals are quite amusing when they are hysterical.

Dec. 6, 2012, 1:54 a.m. GMT

Guest 620 AM lost my listening ear. The progressive gang will be sorely missed. But, I'll tune in another way. Adios, 620 AM!

Dec. 5, 2012, 2:35 a.m. GMT

Guest I found a new station run out of Portland, Oregon today that is pretty good, so far. I do not think ANYTHING will replace the ultimate & beloved KPOJ, but this is giving a good run for the money. I am not sure the station's name, but it is found at: 91.5.

Dec. 4, 2012, 11:21 p.m. GMT

Guest What a joke that they are called the peoples' airwaves. That's just BS. Clearchannel has bought up all the stations in the country and is in the process of utilizing them all so no one from the left can be heard. They don't care if they make a profit. It's all about silencing democrats. The rig...

Dec. 4, 2012, 6:14 p.m. GMT

Guest Horrible news. All i hear now is Republican and Religious BS on the radio. You cant silence us my right wing freaks. We will be back!!

Dec. 4, 2012, 4:26 p.m. GMT

Guest Fox is just a disgusting bunch of blathering old bigoted men. And the last thing we need is another sports station. I now roll with my radio off.

Dec. 4, 2012, 9:22 a.m. GMT

Guest LOL whining about complaining to the FCC? How about Malloy saying "teabaggers" should be beheaded? Think THAT gets advertisers? Think all the moms driving their kids around want them exposed to that filth? Meanwhile you Liberals aren't worth advertiser dollars THAT;S why "progressive" radio is dead....

Dec. 1, 2012, 12:45 a.m. GMT

Guest This letter to KPOJ advertisers sent today-- "With regard to the recent cancellation of service by KPOJ / Clear Channel of progressive talk radio, I sincerely hope that you will consider dropping them from your advertising budget, and join the effort to support a new broadcast channel the will supp...

Nov. 30, 2012, 8:10 p.m. GMT

Guest Randy Rhodes is gone? Not so! See you next Tuesday, Randy!!!!!

Nov. 30, 2012, 5:26 p.m. GMT

Guest It's a nice change to hear some sports and less liberal wining.

Nov. 30, 2012, 4:56 p.m. GMT

Guest The Portland Or area does not need another FOX sports show -- Ed, Thom and Randy are needed for their common sense and factual info for liberals. I refuse to purchase any advertized product on 620 until these three are back on the air. Control the vote did not work, now they are after our choice of ...

Nov. 29, 2012, 11:43 p.m. GMT

Guest so disappointed with the change....

Nov. 29, 2012, 7:57 p.m. GMT

Guest Wow! Fox knocked off another lib eral voice. They relegated Thom Hatmann and Mike Malloy to late night and put Glenn Beck on the morning show. That drove me to streaming my favorites on the computer. KPOJ will be sorely missed, but we are out here and we WILL communicate, one way or another!

Nov. 28, 2012, 2:23 a.m. GMT

Guest Where;s Karl Rove? I know he's lurking out there somewhere. Couldn't be;leve my ears when I went to 620 and not hear my second Favorite radio station (OPB 1st). What the heck?

Nov. 27, 2012, 7:44 a.m. GMT

Guest but instead of stephanie miller, I get (ugh) Glenn Beck and Mike Savage.

Nov. 27, 2012, 12:38 a.m. GMT

Guest We used to be KKGN Green 960 out of Oakland CA. Now it's KNBR right wing talk and sports. They left Randi, and Norman Goldman, and they re-broadcast the morning shows beginning at 7 PM!

Nov. 27, 2012, 12:37 a.m. GMT

Guest They did this to my local progressive AM station. I simply went to Sirius after writing them a polite letter to explain why I would no longer listen to their station.

Nov. 27, 2012, 12:36 a.m. GMT

Guest Please return to progressive talk. Isn't there enough rush limbaugh stations out there?

Nov. 26, 2012, 8:48 p.m. GMT

Guest http://www.savekpoj.com/ save KPOJ progressive radio

Nov. 22, 2012, midnight GMT

Guest This totally blows.

Nov. 21, 2012, 7:40 p.m. GMT

Guest Clear Channel is responsible for shutting down progressive talk radio in a few States now and replacing it with lowest ratings sports programming. It's a propaganda tactic. Boycott all things Clear Channel particularly all business that support them. Telling the business why will motivate change,...

Nov. 21, 2012, 6:35 a.m. GMT

Guest Like most RepubliCan'ts the owners of KPOJ were dismayed that Obama won re-election in a near landslide. So what do they do, take the ONLY progressive radio station in Portland and change to a sports format, like there are not enough already. We need to find out who their current sponsors are, if an...

Nov. 21, 2012, 3:54 a.m. GMT

Guest Portland KBOO 90.7 FM is not Talk Radio, but check it out; at least its not sports

Nov. 21, 2012, 12:07 a.m. GMT

Guest Try Portland's KBOO 90.7 FM for Democracy Now, an Independently Syndicated program the Mogals are not likely to shut down. It is as independant as NPR but with some music, too. Yes, contact the FCC and let them know you don't like having 6 families in the US controlling all forms of Media in this ...

Nov. 21, 2012, 12:01 a.m. GMT

Guest I do not believe there was not enough demand to hear the only honest new available on the AM 620. There is to much to do about nothing with Fox Sports. Give us back our radio station. Post the Petition online@MSNBC with Ed Schultz all us Ed Heads can help.

Nov. 20, 2012, 9:09 p.m. GMT

Guest Those of us who are disappointed and dismayed by KPOJ's decision to eliminate progressive talk radio and replace it with sports programming need to circulate a petition to be submitted to the FCC. This is wrong. There needs to be some liberal voices on the air to counterbalance the overwhelming numb...

Nov. 20, 2012, 8:41 p.m. GMT

Guest Although we have lost Progrssive Talk on KPOJ, we can hope another will someday pick up the reins. In the meantime, we have MSNBC TV and we have Progressive Internet Programming until we are, again, blessed with a progresive-thinking radio channel. It is GREAT there are so many of us "listening".

Nov. 20, 2012, 8:17 p.m. GMT

Guest The only voice for the interests of working class and those interested in preserving and returning to a time of American prosperity, dignity, and intelligence. Clear Channel, Bane Capital, Mitt Romney, you are all good people, don't you think you've scooped out our brains enough with your ridiculous...

Nov. 20, 2012, 6:18 p.m. GMT

Guest I am hoping that this 3rd sports station in the Portland market fails miserably... the loss of progressive talk in our area is sad and appears to be politically motivated...really,FOX sports?

Nov. 20, 2012, 6:08 p.m. GMT

Guest Give us back our station!! Total boycott of all advertisers untill then!!! We will see how much demand there wasn't.

Nov. 20, 2012, 1:58 p.m. GMT

Guest WTF happened to my progressive radio station??? I loved waking up to Karl in the morning!!!

Nov. 20, 2012, 5:49 a.m. GMT

Guest omg you guys are ridiculous get over it. There was not enough demand so The shows couldn't get advertising, your conspiracies are hilarious.

Nov. 20, 2012, 2:37 a.m. GMT

Guest I would like to have the progressive programming restored to KPOJ.

Nov. 20, 2012, 12:32 a.m. GMT

Guest ...It is called customer demand. There is no real demand for progressive programming.... What? Of course there is real demand for progressive programming, you idiot! Maybe you are not a fan of progressive talk, but there are alot of us who are. How dare you say such a thing. Bring back progressive t...

Nov. 19, 2012, 4:53 p.m. GMT

Guest What has happened to my radio station? KPOJ. I listened to it almost every day now all there is, is sports. Oh my gosh what is happening to our United States of America.

Nov. 19, 2012, 4:11 p.m. GMT

Guest I would Like to have the Progressive talk back ...what do we do to get back are talk radio?

Nov. 19, 2012, 1:16 p.m. GMT

Guest The Nazi Party was successful in Germany because the totally controlled the Propoganda machine. Hello, Bain. Hello Clearn Channel.

Nov. 19, 2012, 6:11 a.m. GMT

Guest Boycotting is the way to go. Talk if cheep; cut off the creeps

Nov. 19, 2012, 6:07 a.m. GMT

Guest The only real enemy of TRUTH is silence. Now that progressive talk radio KPOJ has silenced our favorite progressive talk show hosts and substituted in it's place ANOTHER sports talk- like we really needed another vomitus sports talk program, truth in broadcasting is hard to find. When will you eli...

Nov. 19, 2012, 2:10 a.m. GMT

Guest Who are the morons who took away one of my favorite stations and put on sports?? I guess I'm one of the 79 (%?)

Nov. 19, 2012, 12:58 a.m. GMT

Guest The last type of radio station this area needs is another sports channel. I, with thousands of others (NOT 79!) enjoyed listening to the truth and having a place to voice my opinion. I cannot boycott advertisers, because I refuse to listen to a sports talk radio station. I will not know who the adve...

Nov. 19, 2012, 12:18 a.m. GMT

Guest I am sure that the switch to sports will outrage the 79 listeners of progressive radio in Oregon. But, there is a reason for the switch. It is called customer demand. There is no real demand for progressive programming. Why do you think MSNBC has such dreadful rations and left leaning radio companie...

Nov. 18, 2012, 8:39 p.m. GMT

Guest We already have enough sports channels. We already have enough conservative talk. They know that if people have a place to hear the truth, that in time the neo-cons will fall. They are all cowards!

Nov. 18, 2012, 5:18 a.m. GMT

Guest Boycotting advertisers is a great idea - I'll do it.

Nov. 18, 2012, 2:15 a.m. GMT

Guest Follow the money. One of Clear Channel's owners is none other than Bain Capital. That explains everything.

Nov. 17, 2012, 11:09 p.m. GMT

Guest What is wrong with this picture, no voice to listen for progressive issues? Well, I'm done with 620 AM Radio now, NPR is the only station left & they go into alot of little side stories that are actually often boring. Where can we go to listen to Carl Wolfson, Tom Hartman Ed Schultz & Randy Rhodes? ...

Nov. 17, 2012, 2:12 p.m. GMT

Guest Second in motion to not listing to Fox sports. The one radio station that I got educated on politics. Thanks Clear Channel for dumming us down.

Nov. 17, 2012, 6:07 a.m. GMT

Guest I am disappointed beyond words that we lost our source for the truth and progressive thinking. I am done with KPOJ and will go out of my way to boycott any advertisers of the new station format. Unbelievable move, station owners.

Nov. 17, 2012, 2:31 a.m. GMT

Guest Call and Tell those who advertise on KPOJ 620 that you can't support them untill ithe station changes back to the previouse format.

Nov. 17, 2012, 12:54 a.m. GMT

Guest cLEAR CHANNEL HAS INSULTED OREGONIANS BY REPLACING PROGRESSIVE TALK RADIO WITH FOX JOCKS. I HOPE CLEAR CHANNEL LOSES ITS SHIRT, PANTS AND JOCK STRAP!

Nov. 16, 2012, 10:55 p.m. GMT

Guest I, too will not listen to this station. I relied on the progressive talk format for a more balanced and fair view. Very bad decision!

Nov. 16, 2012, 10:37 p.m. GMT

Guest GUEST Democracy? ha,ha,ha.Money is our GOD. Whu has money?-: all sorts of reactioneres, rep.hypocrites, foxes, Bain capitalists. Surprised?? Boycott 620. tune to KBOO- last bastion of independence and progress in OREGON.

Nov. 16, 2012, 9:03 p.m. GMT

Guest guess we can hear about Carl's water sports now, yea.

Nov. 16, 2012, 8:29 p.m. GMT

Guest Just learned that the station is a subsidiary of Bain Capital. This is just unacceptable.

Nov. 16, 2012, 9:24 a.m. GMT

Guest Portland already has 9 sports channels. The airwaves are a federal matter, regulated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC.) Concerned persons may wish to contact the FCC at 1-888-225-5322 to urge them to insist that broadcasters in Oregon meet the needs of the community in a more balanced ...

Nov. 16, 2012, 9:13 a.m. GMT

Guest KPOJ is now a stupid sports station? If you enjoyed the former progressive talk format let's use Power of the Listeners! We can enlist social media to create a boycott of every one of their sponsors.

Nov. 16, 2012, 6:03 a.m. GMT

Guest I was a reguler listener every day, I do not care one bit about sports and if I did I would tape it on television. I find it very suspect that the format changed as soon as the election is over. I do know there is at least three other stations and probably more in the Portland area at any one ti...

Nov. 16, 2012, 2:35 a.m. GMT

Guest Important news and information all day is gone there is no place except the internet to find rational information.... I need it when I am on the road. Where are my peeps Tom, Randi, Malloy etc I need you to inform and educate me on current news and events lifeline gone......

Nov. 16, 2012, 12:44 a.m. GMT

Guest no fox radio I listen for over 6 yrs. to all talk show ed show tom hartmann .no more 620 for me

Nov. 15, 2012, 11:43 p.m. GMT

Guest I will BOYCOTT KPOJ and tune in to KBOO. We desparately need someone to take over. We ARE a progresive state.

Nov. 15, 2012, 10:43 p.m. GMT

Guest This is about denying the public any information that does not conform to the right-wing 1% dictators. Keep the people dumb (sports talk) or terrified (conservative talk), and they're much easier to manipulate. So now Portland, a liberal city with exactly one and a half pro sports teams, has three a...

Nov. 15, 2012, 10:38 p.m. GMT

Guest KPOJ now officially sux. I can't beilieve it! I got the news from KBOO the other day. KBOO is all that remain for us dems and liberals in OREGON!

Nov. 15, 2012, 9:57 p.m. GMT

Guest I will not support any sponsor on the new KPOJ

Nov. 15, 2012, 9:05 p.m. GMT

Guest Can't WAIT for someone else to pick up progressive radio in Portland so that I can support their advertisers! Wow, they are so scared, aren't they, that people will hear the truth. Maybe they'll try to shut down the internet next.....

Nov. 15, 2012, 8:52 p.m. GMT

Guest Poor choice. No more support for any of the advertisers from anyone in my circle of friends....we want something intelligent to listen to, not sports trivia!

Nov. 15, 2012, 6:55 p.m. GMT

Guest Unbelievable. You lost me as a listener as well - what a horrible business decision. I have no interest in your boring sports radio. I am confident another station will bring back progressive talk, and whoever made this decision will regret it. Dumb move.

Nov. 15, 2012, 5:08 p.m. GMT

Guest Astalavista baby,one more mind numming sports program and not only that but it is the worst one I have ever listened to.

Nov. 15, 2012, 3:44 p.m. GMT

Guest Does anyone have the phone number of the person responsible for making this poor business decision and changing format without any notice?

Nov. 15, 2012, 3:06 p.m. GMT

Guest what happened is the sellout of clear choices to Bain Capital in 2008 and now that the democrats won the senate and the presidency the cooperation is worried about having progressive radio talking about liberal ideas.

Nov. 15, 2012, 7:14 a.m. GMT

Guest This is just another form of voter suppression, shame on your you and your sponsors! I agree with others, boycot the sponsors and the station!!!!

Nov. 15, 2012, 6:06 a.m. GMT

Guest It sure is funny, right after the election is decided, you switch to Fox Sports! iI relied on you guess to do the right thing and be a progressive talk show. I'm not interested in Sports talk. You've lost a listener for sure unless you correct this. This is awful....shame on you!

Nov. 15, 2012, 6:04 a.m. GMT

Guest We listened regularly to 620. The programs were excellent and informative.We want progressive talk back.What causd you to think people wanted sports talk? Surely, there was no political influence involved.

Nov. 15, 2012, 4:41 a.m. GMT

Guest WHY DID YOU DO SUCH A NUTTY THING? I WAHT MY TALK PEOPLE BACK SO I CAN LEARN SOMETHING. I don't want sports, I want my Progressive Radio as I've listened to day and night for over five years. I couldn't figure out what was wrong over the weekend, and I could not find anything and then the sports cha...

Nov. 15, 2012, 4:10 a.m. GMT

Guest How could you do that? Are you crazy! Liberal Portland! Please bring back progressive talk. Shame on you. You knew you would upset a lot of people. It must be about money. You put off Tom Hartman, he's from Portland, you should take so much pride in him. What a kick in the teeth, Fox!!! Another no ...

Nov. 15, 2012, 3:35 a.m. GMT

Guest used to listen to kpoj every time I was in the car. No more - sports, yuck

Nov. 15, 2012, 3:34 a.m. GMT

Guest like Tom Petty said in his song, "their goes your freedom of choice"

Nov. 15, 2012, 3:27 a.m. GMT

Guest Organize boycotts of all advertisers not just on new KPOJ format but everyone sponsor of all this companies channels

Nov. 15, 2012, 1:52 a.m. GMT

Guest I will no longer listen to KPOJ or support your sponsors. You are all about HATE, and I will not have anything to do with your format.

Nov. 15, 2012, 1:17 a.m. GMT

Guest Get rid of FOX sports please! Fox anything really. It sucks!

Nov. 15, 2012, 1:09 a.m. GMT

Guest This station sucks since November 9th 2012!

Nov. 15, 2012, 1:07 a.m. GMT

Guest You dropped the Ed Shultz radio show for sports talk.....you got to be kidding me. Bring back Progressive talk.There is no way I will ever listen to sports radio. Bring Ed Shultz back....this is the one show that speaks nothing but the truth and facts. You lost a listener when you removed Ed.

Nov. 15, 2012, 12:59 a.m. GMT

Guest How dare KPOJ switch to sports talk-and without notice. Don't we already have sports talk radio? I could care less about sports talk! Bring back progressive talk with Bill Press, Carl, Ed, Thom, Randi and Norman! This was the only station in town with Progressive talk and I will be damned if I am go...

Nov. 15, 2012, 12:51 a.m. GMT

Guest What happened to your progressive programming? We are definitely missing it. See you later AM620, going to pod casts now.

Nov. 14, 2012, 11:50 p.m. GMT

Guest Offing progressive talk sucks !!!!!!! I will not patronize your advertisers.

Nov. 14, 2012, 10:33 p.m. GMT

Guest I will never listen to any Clear Channel Station, especially in Portland, OR. Losing Progressive Talk on KPOJ is a travesty.

Nov. 14, 2012, 10:02 p.m. GMT

gailek There wasn't any notice, they probably just fired Carl Wolfson and his staff when they came to work and cancelled the other progressive talk people. They did exact same thing to KGO AM in San Francisco, CA last year. They fired all the people right on the spot with no notice and put on dreary spor...

Nov. 14, 2012, 9:59 p.m. GMT

Guest I didn't hear any notice about the switch to FOX Sporting News....I'm looking for a new news channel...Good-bye 620-am.

Nov. 14, 2012, 8:38 p.m. GMT

Guest I can't believe it...where can I listen to some sensible commentary in Portland, Oregon? I'm very dissapointed.

Nov. 14, 2012, 8:34 p.m. GMT

Guest Someone explain why the progressive talk shows have disappeared from 620. We already have 2 stations with sports on all day - I am not listening to 620 any more.

Nov. 14, 2012, 8:27 p.m. GMT

Guest Very sad - and disgusting! We have so many low-information voters because stations like this get rid of progressives and educators! Really, how many sports stations are needed! Shame on Fox/Bain/etc.

Nov. 14, 2012, 6:54 p.m. GMT
