I love WAMU local news coverage, politics hour, etc.  but the agenda that the replacements for Kojo and Diane Rehm had was just too much.  Everything had to talk about trans or race or social justice.  I’m fine with insightful discussions of those topics, even if I disagree with the views discussed - but it was constant and to the exclusion of other interesting topics that used to only be covered (well) by WAMU and then didn’t get covered at all.  I was so happy when they restarted dcist but they didn’t pull much of that work through to be on the air.[/quote]

I agree with you 1000%. I'm a Democrat, I consider myself reasonably liberal, so I'm not someone who's gonna switch over to hate radio (the Rush Limbaugh style crazies). But WAMU "agenda" really started to wear on me.  I listen to WTOP to get news.  And I can still listen to the NPR shows that I love, like the Daily. [/quote]

I’m the PP… and the WTOP news coverage is so unbelievably shitty!  I do the same but it’s so generic and uninteresting.  But it’s all we have.

PP you are responding to. Agreed. WTOP is milque toast as all get out but it's the basics. [/quote]
