Do better, KNWN

Sunday listening was marred by a political commentary review called, “POLITICAST” on Northwest Newsradio KNWN. While waiting for updates on the power failures that blacked out much of the South Sound, I suffered through the left-leaning, Trump hating propaganda feature on what is called a “news” station.

KNWN’s Sunday “Politicast” is pure left-wing sermon: “Democracy in peril!” while Trump is accused of illegally gutting the White House—ignoring every president who’s ever remodeled (Obama’s basketball court, anyone?). As an ABC affiliate, KNWN imports the network’s heavy liberal tilt. Owner Lotus Communications? No partisan fingerprints—quietly corporate, not ideological. The bias is baked in by ABC, not mandated from the top.

KIRO FM didn’t provide much other than the usual slate of syndicated and local infomercial programming.

Seattle radio sucks on the weekend. Prove me wrong.

Lefty ABC radio?

I can’t opine about Seattle radio, but I do have respect for ABC Radio’s news on the hour and half hour. I don’t hear any editorializing and would tune away if I did.

I hear ABC on KONP PortAngeles/Sequim and KMON Great Falls.

The most pitifully amateurish presentation of radio news that I’ve been subjected to in the past five years or so is CBS News on the hour. Maybe, like NBC Radio News, it’s become a castoff orphan whose parents refused to support it anymore and into the dumpster it went with the rest of the trash. I tune away anytime I accidentally hear it.
