To: Clear Channel San Diego Management
Subject: News We Can Use
Last week, I blasted KOGO for their lack of coverage — for two weeks in a row — for not covering the Chula Vista Little League team at the 9 p.m. newscasts on a Sunday night. Yes, I understand that it was talked about earlier in the day during talk shows by various hosts. It was also pointed out in this day of smart phones, social media, the news gets out. Really? Drive your listeners away to other info sites? Never mind the majority of the listeners who do tune in as radio as their point of contact.
The medium is changing. For a majority of your listening audience, the newscasts are the focal point of getting the latest news, weather and sports in the casts. It adds further insult to the listener’s ears, it was reveled that the newscasts were prerecorded.
That’s a sham from a station that has a legacy of Golden Mikes.
What is going to happen when calamity strikes? It’s not an if, as ear witnessed this weekend on on KFI. When news broke on Sunday with the fire swath that darkened the skies of Los Angeles, the station responded. They responded in full force.
Meanwhile in San Diego what will happen when (not an if) calamity strikes in the middle of the night? Will the listeners be rewarded by hearing audio of your TV partner as described by the corporate plan? Will your news team, already stretched thin, be able to cover the county? Is this, as Cliff Albert wrote me, “No big deal.” Don’t let San Diego response be similar to what happened in Minot, North Dakota.
The calendar is moving into full fire season and it’s hoped this year will be a non-event. What about earthquake or weather? There is an obvious concern knowing that newscasts, being recorded in advance and “computer failures” may happen. Not a good feeling as the primary station for news and information as the designated Emergency Action Notification outlet. It’s no comfort the second station is 1360 KLSD.
All the silliness aside, give your listeners the assurance that San Diego’s News and Talk Station is that: a news and talk station that can be depended on. Give truth to the term live and local. Our lives may depend on it.
Sincerely,
Christopher Carmichael

LA’s Mount Wilson was intact this morning. The support to fight the fires were focused on homes, and said the fire would “overrun” the area. As of this morning, the site is intact. The firefighters have Mount Wilson being overun by fire sometime today. Help to fight the raging fire, was on its way.
Thank you for making SDRadio part of your internet travels. See YOU on the radio today and here when news breaks! Make it a great day.
