This is pretty damned amusing:
It’s official: even Clear Channel is sick of Clear Channel. The company has set up a fake pirate radio station [taken down, 5/26/05] in Akron, Ohio, which it’s using to hurl insults at other Clear Channel stations. For about a week, Radio Free Ohio has feigned overthrowing Ohio’s media monopoly by bleeding its broadcasts into WNIR and other Clear Channel stations.
Shoddy and shady and silly, but pretty creative for the stuffed shirts at Clear Channel. (via Pandagon)

I grew up around Akron. What’s funny is that WHLO (now apparently right wing talk radio) was the progressive rock station when I was a kid…Beatles, Dave Clark 5, Kinks (I’m dating myself, I know) I used to go to sleep every night listening to the British countdown on WHLO. The world has changed a bit since 1964.

Yeah. I’ve gone from being a 1 year old to a 42 year old.

Ah to be 42 again. Damn, those were the days.
